WHY DO WE USE STAINLESS STEEL INSTEAD OF BRASS?


From high-end consumer items to the largest commercial kitchens, one thing that you will find prevalent in the the abundant use of stainless steel. Stainless steel surfaces, equipment, tools and continue to serve as a cornerstone of the modern food service environment. The following are just some of the reasons why Commercial Faucet is necessary to make a fundamental change from chromed brass to stainless steel.


Appearance

1

Brass taps can be coated with a chrome finish and even gold, copper, nickel, black, and coloured paint. However, such coatings can peel or scratch through time. Stainless steel has no coating but can be brushed or polished - and it will not fade.

Stainless steel faucets can complement almost any kitchen and theme, and the sleek, gleaming metallic finish makes it aesthetically pleasing giving an overall wider look.


Maintenance

Stainless steel taps is easy to wipe clean and does not easily breed bacteria,while it may take you a while to clean brass taps due to tarnishing. Although stainless steel tap is more expensive than brass tap, you won`t be replacing them due to staining, cracking or warping. So, in the longer run, they will prove much more cost-efficient.


Durability

2

Stainless steel will likely need fewer professional repairs. It is strong, durable and corrosion-resistant. Moreover, stainless steel can tolerate much higher temperature than other metals.While the brass is much softer material,it will have a tendency to erode and absorb stains, smudges, fingerprints and scuff marks then get damage easier.


Hygiene

3

Stainless steel is a sanitary metal.It has a perfectly smooth hard oxide layer which offers inferior ccommodation to these microorganisms,so it doesn`t allow microorganisms to colonize and make the water stays clean.Many brass forged faucets are rough and foreign material collects over time negatively altering the taste and hygeine of your water.

Furthermore, brass contains lead and arsenic, which will slowly mix with your water over time to cause heavy metal poisoning. Unlike brass taps, stainless steel contains no lead (Pb),it is regarded as the most hygienic material, that`s why it`s used in not just restaurants, but hospitals abundantly.


CONCLUSION: Stainless steel taps are more expensive than brass taps. However, the price difference will be negligible if you want to buy a tap that will last for much longer. Stainless steel tap will cost less in the long run.
