Explain the classification, advantages and uses of brass tubes in detail
Brass pipe is a kind of non-ferrous metal pipe. It is a pressed and drawn seamless pipe. It has become the first choice for modern contractors to install water pipes, heating and cooling pipes in all residential commercial buildings.

Classification of brass tubes
Brass pipes are divided into two types: ordinary brass pipes and special brass pipes according to the types of alloying elements contained in brass; brass pipes for pressure processing are called deformed brass pipes.
If it is a variety of alloys composed of two or more elements, it is called special brass. Special brass is also called special brass. It has high strength, high hardness, chemical resistance, and the mechanical properties of cutting processing are also outstanding.
Advantages of brass tube
1. The brass tube has a hard texture, is not easy to corrode, is resistant to high temperature and high pressure, and can be used in a variety of environments. Compared with this, the shortcomings of other pipes are obvious. For example, the galvanized steel pipes used in residential buildings in the past are very easy to rust, and problems such as yellowing of tap water and small water flow will occur after using it for a long time. In addition, the strength of some materials will decrease rapidly at high temperatures, which will cause unsafe hazards when used in hot water pipes, while the temperature of the hot water system is negligible for brass pipes.
2. Brass is a binary alloy of copper and zinc. It has good color, workability, ductility, and is easy to be electroplated or painted; it has good mechanical properties, good plasticity in the hot state, and acceptable plasticity in the cold state. Good machinability, easy to wire and weld.
3. The brass tube is lighter in weight, has good thermal conductivity and high strength at low temperature. It is often used in the manufacture of heat exchange equipment (such as condensers, etc.), as well as in the assembly of low-temperature pipelines in oxygen production equipment. Brass tubes with small diameters are often used to transport pressured liquids (such as lubrication systems, oil pressure systems, etc.) and pressure measuring tubes for instruments.
Uses of brass tubes
Ordinary brass pipes have a wide range of uses, such as various plumbing products such as faucets, water supply and drainage pipes, various mechanical and refrigeration components such as serpentine tubes, condensers, and various complex shaped punching products and small hardware parts. For various parts of machinery and electrical appliances, stamping parts and musical instruments, they can withstand thermal processing well.
