Brass & aluminum have very similar requirement protocol related to plating and base coats required and can also be a 3 or 4 plate layer foundation. However whereas 6061 aluminum has just under half the tensile strength of brass, 7075 aluminum is 30% higher tensile strength and stronger than brass. S'why its commonly referred to as 'poor man's Titanium.'
I'm still trying to figure out how my metals sample picked up a 1% bauxite content. The primary ore in aluminum in a case void of any aluminum!?! Guess that's why there's a 1% margin for error factored in or I didn't get my sample collecting tap as clean as I thought
