Advantages and disadvantages of stainless steel faucet

A. Advantages:
1. Compared with copper, stainless steel faucets are harder and tougher.
2. Due to the addition of other metals, stainless steel is very durable, hygienic and environmentally friendly, and it also has many benefits for human health.
3. Stainless steel has strong corrosion resistance and alkali resistance, and will not release any harmful metal substances.
B. Disadvantages:
1. Due to the very high hardness of stainless steel, the production and processing technology of stainless steel is much more difficult than that of copper; its production loss is also very large, the sealing performance needs to be strengthened, and the price is not cheap.
2. Although stainless steel is said to never rust, there are many counterfeit stainless steel products circulating on the market. Such stainless steel products will rust after a period of use. Therefore, be sure to choose stainless steel hardware of big brands, so as to be more secure.
3. The stainless steel industry is still in the development stage, and some manufacturers will add some toxic heavy metals in the production and processing to achieve the hardness and strength standards. Although it has not yet been clearly checked how long it takes to soak in water to precipitate these heavy metals, everyone still has to pay attention.
