Where To Find Scrap Brass
Brass is found in so many places you would be shocked. See that pen on your desk? Many metals pens are made of brass, and you see it every day. Brass has many different uses and forms, many of which you might not even know about.
Most sink faucets, spigots for your hose, rod brass, EDM wire, and other products are all brass and can produce scrap. Brass scrap can be found all over the place, there is brass on connection valves on grills, ovens, and sinks, as well as in decorative pieces like plates and some silverware. You can also have brass lamps, statues, and other household items that can be collected for scrap.
How do you tell that your metal is brass? Use a file to scratch it and see if it is yellow afterward. Brass is a yellow color and is mixed with copper and zinc (sometimes more metals) to create the metal. Brass does not rust, but it could corrode, and when it does, you will have to replace whatever that brass piece was being used for.
