Etched nameplates are metal nameplates that have been chemically etched to create a permanent, durable, and eye-catching finish.
The etching process uses chemicals to remove a layer of metal from the surface of the nameplate, revealing the underlying metal. This creates a contrast between the etched areas and the un-etched areas, which gives the nameplate a unique and stylish appearance.
Stainless steel is an alloy of iron with chromium and often nickel. It is called "stainless" because it is highly resistant to corrosion and rust, even in the presence of water and other corrosive substances.
The chromium in stainless steel forms a protective layer on the surface of the metal that prevents corrosion. The amount of chromium in stainless steel determines its corrosion resistance. Stainless steel with 12% or more chromium is considered to be stainless.
Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. It is a yellow-gold coloured metal that is known for its malleability, ductility, and conductivity. Brass is also relatively inexpensive, making it a popular choice for a variety of applications.
The proportions of copper and zinc in brass can vary, depending on the desired properties of the alloy. For example, brass with a higher zinc content is more malleable and ductile, while brass with a higher copper content is more conductive.
