BRASS SCRAP AND INGOTS

Brass is any alloy of copper and zinc; the proportions of zinc and copper can be varied to create a range of brasses, each of which has unique properties[1].

It is mainly used for decoration, plumbing and electrical applications, rifle and pistol ammunition, and extensively in musical instruments
