Material

420/BR Steel

420/BR is a bronze-infused stainless steel that offers good strength and wear resistance for decorative and industrial parts, but less corrosion resistance than solid stainless steel.

About

420/BR Steel is a composite of 420 Stainless Steel and bronze (about 60% and 40%), in which the bronze fills the pores of the steel framework. Because it is a mixture, it lacks the corrosion resistance of solid stainless steel, so it is less suited to wet or corrosive environments.

420/BR Steel is a good option for decorative parts and ornaments, and for industrial components such as pump and wear parts.
