Silicon bronze is a popular material, often referred to simply as bronze. Silicon bronze, an alloy of mostly copper and tin, contains a small amount of silicon, making it a perfect choice for marine environments. Many marine professionals prefer silicon bronze fasteners over stainless or other metals because of its superior resistance to corrosion and its strength and durability. Though bronze has a higher cost than some comparative metals, silicon bronze nuts and bolts are reliable and durable.

Silicon bronze fasteners are generally preferred in wooden boat construction and woodworking because of its resistance to corrosion compared to stainless and its higher strength compared to brass. Woodworkers tend to prefer bronze over copper because of its natural beauty and appearance, which amplifies the value of handmade sea crafts while ensuring boats are structurally sound.
