Comparison Of Two Materials For Bathroom Shower Faucets

    The most important and essential water function of the shower is controlled by the main body of the faucet. The showers commonly used in the family usually have a variety of water outlet methods, such as hand-held shower water, top spray water, and lower water outlet.

    Without the control of the main body of the faucet, it is impossible to achieve water discharge and switch between different water discharge modes. From the outside, there is nothing special about the main body of the bathroom shower faucet, but the internal structure of the faucet is very precise, mainly composed of the main body, the water divider, and the valve core.

However, the processing technology of stainless steel is complicated, the processing technology is not as mature as that of brass, the precision is not as high as that of brass, the cost is high and the price is high. Non-market mainstream materials.

    Brass is a commonly used material for shower faucets in the industry. Copper itself has an antibacterial effect, and the lead content of H59 brass in the national standard is controlled below 0.5%, which is enough to ensure the health and safety of water for daily use. Moreover, the brass surface is chrome-plated, and the electroplating layer is as bright as a mirror, making the whole faucet full of texture.
