Brass is an alloy, not a coating.

Brass bolts won't rust. That is why they use brass in thru hull
fittings on boats. It is even more corrosion resistant than 316
stainless, especially in warm climates.


Bronze, not brass. For salt water at least. Brass is an alloy of
copper and zinc, zinc gets eaten up by electrolysis, what's left isn't
pretty.
