Is it better to use copper or stainless steel for kitchen faucets?

Stainless steel, because stainless steel can protect the water pipe better.

According to BAI, China's national conditions and cost; It is recommended to choose DU304 stainless steel faucet, remember, it is DAO304 stainless steel, and it must be a brand manufacturer.

Target; Don't be greedy, everyone knows the current production situation in China. Here's why you don't choose copper; Because of the cost problem; At present, most of the copper on the market contains heavy metals; Only 99% purity meets WHO standards; And it's very expensive; Therefore, some people ask, the market is not expensive, because these contain heavy metals!! 304 stainless steel faucets are not expensive, green and healthy, it is recommended to choose 304 stainless steel; The new house is equipped with a 304 stainless steel faucet, and it also has a pull-out.

It is recommended to give preference to the material of stainless BAI steel. The material of the kitchen faucet is generally brass, that is.

DAO is the most common pure copper faucet on the market. But due to the characteristics of the right kitchen environment, pure copper faucets are not necessarily the best choice. All pure copper faucets are plated in the outermost layer, and the role of plating is to prevent corrosion and rust of the brass inside.

The kitchen has a lot of fumes, and combined with greasy hands and detergent while washing dishes, you will often need to clean the faucet. If you don't clean it in the right way, it is very likely to damage the plating layer of the faucet, causing the faucet to be corroded and rusted. If you want to choose an all-copper kitchen faucet, you must make sure that there is excellent electroplating, otherwise it is easy to cause rust and corrosion of the faucet.

Now there are some manufacturers using high-quality 304 stainless steel to make faucets, high-quality stainless steel faucets and pure copper faucets, with lead-free, acid-resistant, alkali-resistant, non-corrosive, no release of harmful substances, will not pollute the tap water characteristics. This is very important for drinking water in the kitchen; And stainless steel faucets do not need electroplating, it is not easy to rust, and the hardness and toughness are more than twice that of copper products, so it is very convenient to clean. However, due to the high processing difficulty of stainless steel, the current high-quality stainless steel faucets are usually relatively expensive.

The copper core is better, so the copper is more wear-resistant and has a long service life.
