Cracked Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 Hi, did a search on brass screws but didn't find my question answered. I'm just wondering if brass screws, because brass seems to always be mentioned, would be better for a bolt on rather than stainless steel screws. I thought Brass wasn't as strong as stainless. Maybe it's just that Brass is mentioned for nuts, bridges etc. and inserts? Could someone straighten me out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikhailgtrski Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 I thought Brass wasn't as strong as stainless. It's not. Use steel screws to attach a bolt-on neck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marzocchi705 Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 +1 brass is much softer than steel, not somthing you want to make a screw out of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
