1: Stainless steel material
Nowadays, the stainless steel material of our faucets is the most widely used. Stainless steel is now an internationally recognized healthy material that can be planted and human body. Therefore, many people prefer to choose this material when purchasing faucets. Among them, the most The material suitable for our household drinking water is 304 stainless steel. The real 304 stainless steel material is actually more expensive than the copper faucet material.
2: Brass
Brass faucets are also a common material for faucet manufacturing. This material is processed with international standard H59/H62 copper. It has no rust, anti-oxidation, and can also play a certain role in water. Bactericidal effect, very durable. But there are also certain disadvantages, that is, if some inferior copper materials are used, it may contain lead, which is harmful to the body. The lead in the international standard copper content does not exceed 2.5%.
3: Zinc alloy
Zinc alloy is also a material for making faucets. The density of zinc alloy is smaller than that of copper, and it is lighter, and its surface is particularly easy to be oxidized, the service life is not long, and the lead content may be higher than copper, but zinc alloy The material is used to make the handle of the faucet, and the cost performance is still relatively high.
4: Engineering plastics
Engineering plastic is the faucet of ABS plastic. The faucet of this material has the advantages of corrosion resistance, anti-aging, no rust, no lead, etc., and the weight is relatively light, the construction is also very convenient, and the price is relatively high. It is a new type of green and environmentally friendly product, and it can also make the water quality without the risk of rust pollution.
