Don't use brass or bronze in damp, saline environments. It tends not to last very long.

Sir,

What are the practical usages of Silicon Bronze? Whether there are any additions to the Alloy besides 3-4% Silicon to give Golden Looks? Are we using Silicon Bronze in general engineering, particularly mechanical?

Thanks & Regards; waiting for your answer_ _A_N_Harshe
