Brass component (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

zinc

'brass component' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for zinc that I've seen before include "Antioxidant element" , "Galvanizing metal" , "Sivery-white metal" , "Metal alloyed with copper to make brass" , "Ingredient in brass" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, the Newsday and The Wall Street Journal.
