When choosing the right valve for your project, it is important to choose between stainless steel valves or brass valves. One is usually more suitable for the project than the other due to the difference in materials. So today, the kitchen faucets manufacturers talk about the difference between stainless steel valves and brass valves:

Brass is a copper alloy, which means it is stronger than plastic. This extra strength makes them, although not the most expensive valve choices, but more expensive than PVC or plastic valves.

Brass is a mixture of copper and zinc, sometimes a mixture of other metals. Due to its nature as a soft metal, it is well resistant to corrosion compared to plastic valves. Compared to plastic, brass also absorbs and absorbs more heat, making brass valves the best choice for home piping systems.

A significant difference between stainless steel and brass valves is that brass valves are more susceptible to welding than stainless steel valves. This provides some versatility. However, brass valves do have some drawbacks.

Although stainless steel valves are more expensive than brass, steel is a very durable, resilient metal. Brass is a copper alloy, and stainless steel is an iron alloy mixed with chromium and nickel.

The nature of the materials means that these valves are effective against leaks. Steel can also work at higher temperatures than brass and last longer. Stainless steel valves are the best choice for high pressure and high temperature applications. They are also materials with good corrosion resistance.

A stainless steel valve, 316 stainless steel, is particularly resistant to corrosion because it contains more nickel and also contains molybdenum. This combination of iron, nickel and molybdenum makes the valve particularly resistant to chlorides and is very useful in marine environments.
