Choosing proper quality plumbing is an extremely responsible process and far from the easiest one, requiring specific knowledge and some skills. The hardest part is choosing a good mixer. However, by taking one useful little thing with you to the store, you can greatly facilitate your task of selecting high-quality equipment for mixing and separating water streams.
None of the owners in the house are interested in changing the faucet in the bathroom or kitchen every few months. In order not to have to do anything like this, you should first of all choose plumbing made of brass. The only problem is that manufacturing companies in 9 out of 10 cases do not indicate the name of the material on the box? from which the device was made.
You can solve this problematic issue with the help of one small trick, proven over the years. It is enough to take a tiny neodymium magnet with you to the store. It shouldn't be very difficult to get one. You can knock out the magnet from some old, broken device. Finally, you can just buy a set of magnets, since they are inexpensive (especially since there will always be a use for them on the farm).

Taking a neodymium magnet to a plumbing store, we simply apply it to the mixer in several places. If in each of them it is attracted, then the plumbing unit can be taken, it is good. This is most likely made of brass. It should also be borne in mind that magnets do not stick to this metal as clearly as to steel. It is also important that magnets do not stick to zinc alloys and silumin (these are the materials that cheap plumbing is made of) at all!
