I-Copper iyithusi elimsulwa, ngokuvamile lingalinganiswa njengethusi elimsulwa. I-conductivity engcono ne-plasticity, kodwa amandla nobulukhuni buhle.
Ngokusho kokwakhiwa, izinto zokukhiqiza zethusi zaseShayina zingahlukaniswa ngezigaba ezine: ithusi elivamile, ithusi elingenawo umoya-mpilo, ithusi elifakwe umoya-mpilo kanye nethusi elikhethekile okwandisa izakhi ezimbalwa ze-alloying (njengethusi le-arsenic, ithusi le-tellurium, ithusi lesiliva) . I-Copper kagesi kanye ne-thermal conductivity ingeyesibili kuphela kunesiliva, futhi isetshenziswa kakhulu ekwenzeni izinto ezisebenza ngogesi kanye ne-thermal.
Induku yethusi yinto emise okwenduku eyenziwe ngethusi ne-zinc alloy, ebizwa ngombala wayo ophuzi. I-Brass rod inezakhiwo ezinhle zemishini kanye nokumelana nokugqoka. Isetshenziswa kakhulu ekwenzeni amathuluzi anembayo, izingxenye zomkhumbi, izingxenye zezimoto, izesekeli zezokwelapha, izesekeli zikagesi kanye nazo zonke izinhlobo zezinto ezisizayo eziyimishini, izindandatho zamazinyo e-automotive synchronizer.
