Kudos to you guys for actually providing informative contact instead of commercial BS - if I ever have a need I will seek out Metal Supermarkets.
For a commercial this was extremely well done! I can’t stand commercials that just throw things at the viewer telling them “buy this, and buy this too”! Informative and simple. Well done metal supermarkets!

For bronze, I would add the application of fine musical instrument bells, cymbals, and gongs, such as the 80% copper/20% tin bell bronze formula developed by the Zildjian family centuries ago in Armenia, and which is used to this day by most of the worlds' main major cymbal makers. The wonderful bronze bells, from European cathedrals to Tibetan monasteries, are also worthy of mention...
One of the best and most informative commercials I've ever seen. I have no use to buy metals at this point however I wish you great success for the way you chose to educate without creating a "clickbait".

A mechanical engineering student here, and was kinda confused about how copper and brass are different, so i came here to see the differences in their looks. Thanks for an excellent video❤
As a welder, I quickly learned that one does not heat bronze to bend it. I must be bent cold. When hot, it is as brittle as China. It shatters, crumbles.

@daniel tanYou misunderstand. The reference to china is what most Americans call their fine dinner plates ussualy only used for holidays and family gatherings. We call it "china" or "fine china"and are fragile. That being said most americans as well as the world are sick of junky Chinese imported products that break on there first use.

@@josephemond2025 It isn't so much the cheap products that people find offensive, but the policies driving the production. See the Lao Gai Museum in Washington D.C. for documentation and evidence of China's huge slave-labor force. See also Life and Death in Shanghai. I believe "daniel tan" was making an attempt at humor or light-hearted sarcasm. However, your using a capital letter to describe fine porcelain plates generates some confusion. China uses a lowercase c in that context. Why do you Capitalize China but not America?

Great video; straight to the point.
I love getting information that is straight forward, clear and concise and not chatty. If I want to chat I'll call a friend.
Your videos are great at educating us on metals! Thanks for posting them.
One of the more interesting metals I've encountered as a surveyor is aluminum bronze; it was used at one time for international border monuments because of its corrosion resistance.

Excellent video and I learned a few things. For example, at 0:52 I learned you can braise copper! First I browned a piece of my copper (incidentally purchased at Metal Supermarket on Keating X-Road) in an electric frying pan on "high" which worked pretty well and then stewed it for a couple of hours in a pot with some BBQ sauce. Overall I would not recommend it. It came out rather tasteless and very tough to chew. I put it back in stock and someday I might braze something together with it. Incidentally, Acreales and Alan Hilder commented that Gold is more conductive that either copper or silver. This is not correct assuming that you are talking about standard methods of measuring resistivity. Silver is best at 1.59 X 10 to the minus 8 Ohms*M, annealed Copper is 1.72 X 10 to the minus 8 Ohms*M, and Gold is 2.44 X 10 to the minus 8 Ohms*M. Ohms*M is a standard method of measuring resistivity based on the resistance of a certain physical size of a piece of material. A lower number indicates less resistivity. Some might wonder why Aluminum (2.65 X 10 to the minus 8 Ohms*M) is sometimes used in high voltage power lines when it is a rather poor conductor. The answer is that it is inexpensive and light - so you can make a wire that is larger in cross section than copper so it has a lower resistance and even though there is more volume of material it is lighter and cheaper than copper. Alan also mentioned that Gold is used in making computer chips. He is more or less correct, but the reason it is used is not because it is a better conductor. It is used because it does not corrode or oxidize easily. These days most of the wiring on the layers of the chips is made of copper but the wires are getting so thin that electro-migration is becoming a problem. This is an effect where the current flowing through the wire actually carries atoms of copper along with it - which eventually damages the wire. The next generation of computer chips may use cobalt (6.25 X 10 to the minus 8 Ohms*M) as the conductor not because Cobalt is a good conductor but because it is resistant to electro-migration even in very small cross sections.

Very informative post, but your initial joke fails because of the difference in spelling: braze vs braise. And they are pronounced the same.

@@clarencegreen3071 Turn on English closed captions at 0:52 and you will get the joke. I agree that the pronunciation of the two words is very similar but, at least in the way I pronounce, them there are subtle differences. The tongue is positioned differently leading to more sibilance (hiss) for the word braise and more "buzz" for the word braze. Your mileage and accent may vary...
lol, been trying to figure this out for over 35 year..thank you. Great video, and sound.

Thanks for the education - thumbs up!
It certainly gave me a better idea of differences I was especially interested in the alloy contents in any case I’m surprised you did not mention the use of copper and brass in plumbing which is extensive and essential
This new learning amazes me, Sir Bedevere.
Thank you, Jason for that informative video, I hope Metal supermarkets thrives, though i have no use for metals at this point. I too wish you and your company luck in the future.

Wow! I learn more about these 3 metal in the minutes than what I learnt in the past. Glad I stumble on this video. :)
A very good educational advert/commercial.Good stuff.Enjoyed watching it.
Very informative and helpful ! Thanks for sharing ! Good work !
One of the best videos explaining the difference between copper and it 2 most important alloys
Thanks for this very informative video!
Just what I needed to know. You get the basics without too much detail or going off on tangents.
Excellent informative vid. Thank you.
Great video! Informative and simple.
This is something I never really thought Id care to learn but now that I know Im glad I learned it
This is a very helpful video. Thank you for posting this.
Thank you! This video was insightful and enjoyable.
this is very valuable information for those noble and red metals . Thank you for the presentation and metal vocabulary.
i love this man , really helpful and easy delivery
Also, copper conducts heat better than any other metal, which makes it ideal for radiators and heat sinks. Of course, aluminum (which is the second best conductor of heat) is often used in place of copper because it is lighter and cheaper.
direct and simple, thank you
Love this video's direct and informative approach.
Yall should do videos on metals and the process of smelting them.
Great clip!
Great video very informative. Almost makes me want to buy metal even I have no use for right now. I would business person and the way you handled your advertisement makes me think hard about my own business and how I might utilize what you did to promote my business.
Thanks for these informative videos!
This is actually a really informative video and quite enjoyed it.
Excellent and informative video... I always wanted to know this
Thanks.... informative... precisely, well spoken.
I wanted to know what bronze was and came across this video. Learned alot . Ty
Great informative video. Short and sweet
had i lived in the US and would be buying metals i would chose the one who informed me of objective information about them. I learned from this and now im going to look at other vids on your channel + subscribe to learn more.
Thanks for that nice educational information....you sending a- how to do- ways to get the right on point. Will be nice more of these info
The dry presentation makes this really funny 😂😂😂
Nice video, thanks for explaining the difference. I’ve been collecting scrap metal for around a year and don’t think I have came across any bronze at all, I wouldn’t even know what the scrap value of bronze even is??
centrifugal casting! I work at another major metal distributor and always wondered why all the types of bronze have the banding pattern
Great vid. Lots of info!
Enjoyed the video! Also made me chuckle "Metal Supermarket is world's largest supplier of small quantity..."
Thanks for this Marvellous information.
I wouldn't mind commercials as much if they were informative like this one.
Very informative. Thanks!
Hello, thanks for the information. I have a question, in extreme cold weather conditions, what material makes fewer variations in the tuning and projection of the gold or yellow brass sound?
Bronze valve guides makes so much sense now.
This isn't even a commercial. It's an educational video that was self-sponsored.
Good job that was helpful...Thanks
Thanks for the great info 👍🏻
Thank you for the information .
Very informative. THanks for that
On the bronze piece, the "rings" or chill lines are a result of the continuous cast process not from the centrifugal cast process. The rest of the video was pretty good.

Really good educational video,
Copper was also used to line sailing ship hulls to prevent the growth of marine organisms including barnacles. In the 20th century boat's bottom paint was paint mixed with a high amount of powdered copper. I love bronze. Oxidized, it is beautiful. It is the "stainless steel" of industry before the latter was invented. Also used for swords before the invention of steel. The alloy of Ulysses.
I didn't know about centrifugal casting of bronze. That was enough for a thumbs up from me.
Good job buddy. Thanks

awesome video
I've tried to work brass from scrap bins and almost all the metal i use cracks even after firing it, or some sheets, cracked when i bent them in a sheet metal press. However, i brass plumbing pipe i fired, after splitting down the middle, has made me 3 awesome, flat, rectangle hilt guards for swords. I'm almost turned off to brass, cuz the variations can't seem to be worked without major discoloration and cracking when working, hot or cold.

Thank God. I've lost so much sleep on trying to figure that out.
Copper is a very special metal that was used in the old world that has been erased from history. I've heard of ancient copper weapons like spears and arrows that were found that reverted back to it's original shape when bent from tip to tip.. and ancient copper statues that glowed in the dark. There was something about using radium to temper the copper that gave it magical properties
Very helpful thanx!
