Hello,
I am developing a product with 3 plates, one of the plates is to be made of brass. The plate needs to be brass due to its color and metallic properties. The brass supplier from China default brass option is H59.
I don't know much about metallurgy and need some advice on this. From a quick search online I understand that there is lead content in this brass and that for for example for water pipes the brass must be H62 or higher.
In my product (a novelty gift) the brass is going to be encased by stainless steel and glass. Is there any reason why H59 should not be used?
In addition, I would like that the gold color of glass is maintained for years, what kind of finish should be applied to this plate to keep it this way?
Thank you!
