Is brass stronger than copper?

Brass sheet is generally stronger than copper. Brass sheet is an alloy made by combining copper with zinc, and the addition of zinc increases the hardness and strength of the resulting material. The specific properties of brass can vary depending on the ratio of copper to zinc and any additional elements added to the alloy.

In comparison to pure copper, brass typically has better tensile strength, making it more resistant to deformation under stress. The increased strength of brass makes it a preferred material for various applications, including in engineering, construction, and manufacturing.

However, it's essential to note that the specific strength of brass can vary based on the alloy composition. Different types of brass alloys may have different properties, including variations in strength, corrosion resistance, and color. When selecting a material for a specific application, it's crucial to consider the alloy composition and its suitability for the intended purpose.
