Brass with an aesthetic appeal
The exquisite laser-cut brass from Ascenti CNC is simple to mold, bend, and machine. As a result, it is the ideal material for your tiny hinges, locks, and other fasteners that work well with brass.
Brass prevents bacterial growth due to its innate antimicrobial properties. It’s great for applications that are exposed to handling, such as bathroom fixtures.
Perfect for various applications
Moreover, brass won't rust when used outside, unlike steel and iron, which makes it a perfect material for signage and aesthetic displays. It's crucial to keep in mind that if you want to use it in this way, moisture will cause it to corrode, specifically in the form of tarnish.
​
Brass is a combination of copper and zinc (with a few other trace elements), and the tarnishing effect is similar to copper.
