What are the variables in specifying, for  fasteners,  bronze, brass and ss?

There's alloy, finish, size, type, and probably a hundred other  things.  Are 
you trying to decide whether to use brass, bronze, or s/s  for some specific 
purpose?  If so, tell us what it is, and we'll tell you  what to use.
 
The correct answer is probably stainless (for durability), unless you're  
using it in a chlorinated environment, or if you for some reason ultimately want  
a verdigris finish.
