As we all know, in the current internationally popular faucet manufacturing process, copper alloys are still the dominant raw material. But where the high-end point of the faucet, the main body is made of copper casting, a little knowledgeable people all know that copper has good ductility, sterilization characteristics !

Since 2005 , as copper prices have risen steadily, some unscrupulous merchants have used stainless steel, zinc alloys, magnesium alloys, and aluminum alloys as substitutes in pursuit of high profits.
