Faucet Aerator Mesh Insert in Brass (H65 / CuZn35) is used for mixing air into tap water and breaking the stream into a soft, non-splashing jet through stacked stainless mesh discs. The alloy gives good atmospheric and fresh-water resistance; unsuitable for ammonia service and is non-magnetic, with a practical service limit of approx. +200 °C.
