brass is a soft metal and is used to hit metal. a brass hammer is made to not damage the material. But instead damage the hammer

ANS 2 -Brass hammers are used for things like knocking bearings into place in the seat, moving easily damaged parts on a gear rod, and similar things where a steel hammer would cause damage.

Brass is used in instruments, coins, and many varied fixtures such as doorknobs, bolts, etc. Brass is also used to decorate many household items such as clocks and mirrors. During the medieval and ancient times, brass was used to decorate armor as well as forge cannons. Steel was used in cannons upon its discovery.
