Lakemonster Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Depending on the model, you get various parts made of different metals...THe heavy parts like the stem of a QT, Mini... and the hearts of the breakdown models are made of cast brass and have a chrome plating. The hose connections are brass.... the purge valves are brass..... The ashplates... and the screw on downstems are ferrous alloy... but thats about it....My "waterfall" Mya has a aluminum internal stem.... the ashplate seat is some sort of ferrous alloy.The term "stainless steel" gets used very liberally in the hookah world.
