What Are Brass Fastenings?

Brass is a copper based alloy known for its resistance to corrosion, ease of machining and distinctive appearance. Unlike steel, brass does not rust and performs well in damp environments, making it suitable for applications where moisture or water exposure is expected.


Brass fastenings are also non ferrous and non magnetic, which makes them particularly useful in electrical installations, precision assemblies and specialist engineering work. Their natural golden finish makes them popular for visible fixings where appearance is important as well as performance.

Typical Uses for Brass Fastenings

Brass fastenings are commonly specified where corrosion resistance and material compatibility are key considerations. They are widely used in plumbing and water related applications, electrical installations, decorative fixtures, furniture making and light engineering work.


Their non ferrous properties make brass fastenings suitable for use alongside copper components, helping to reduce the risk of galvanic corrosion. They are also frequently used in restoration and heritage projects where traditional materials and finishes are preferred.


While brass is softer than steel and stainless steel, it performs exceptionally well in low to medium load applications where durability and resistance to corrosion are required.

Corrosion Resistance and Performance

Brass fastenings naturally resist corrosion caused by moisture and atmospheric exposure. This makes them suitable for indoor use, damp environments and certain outdoor applications where conditions are not overly aggressive.


Because brass is softer than steel, it is not intended for high load or structural applications. Instead, it offers reliable performance in assemblies where strength demands are moderate and where ease of installation and long-term appearance are important.


Correct specification ensures brass fastenings provide long service life without compromising performance.

Strength and Installation Characteristics

Brass fastenings are easy to machine and install, offering smooth thread engagement and reduced risk of thread damage when fitted correctly. Care should be taken to avoid over tightening, as brass does not have the same tensile strength as carbon steel fasteners.


For applications requiring higher strength, stainless steel or high tensile fasteners may be more suitable. For applications where corrosion resistance, electrical compatibility or decorative finish are priorities, brass fastenings remain an excellent choice.
