Materials

Products of all brands sold by FineKnobs.com are primarily made of solid brass and bronze. Both materials are copper alloys. The key difference between the two metals is that brass is an alloy comprised principally of copper and zinc (~33%) while bronze is an alloy comprised principally of copper and tin (~12%) when used in producing architectural hardware. Both metals may incorporate other trace elements to produce different characteristics of finished products.

  • Muted yellow, gold-like appearance
  • Extremely durable and malleable
  • Low boiling point for easier castings
  • High workability with hand tools, turning and milling allowing high detailing
  • Well suited for applying a wide range of finishes
  • Reddish brown appearance
  • Corrosion resistant
  • Being hard and brittle makes it more suitable for forming into castings
