What Types of Metals Can Be Used in Metal
Fabrication?

• When you think about metal fabrication in
  adelaide, it is important that the process
  requires metals that have certain properties.
  Experts say that conductivity, strength,
  resistance to corrosion, and hardness are some
  important properties that make a metal ideal for
  that.
• It makes various processes like cutting, bending,
  and welding easy. You can make a wide range of
  products ranging from items of daily use to large
  structures like heavy machinery or furnaces.
• So, what are different metals that can be used in
  the fabrication process? Lets see some of them.

Iron and steel

• Yes, Iron and Steel are two metals. Steel is, of
  course, an alloy of iron and carbon, which
  includes a mix of iron ore, limestone, coal, and
  other elements. Iron is essential for the
  production of steel.
• Steel is the common metal used in fabrication,
  and it has a long array of items made by that.
• If you check with any service company that
  handles metal fabrication in adelaide, then you
  will find that the most commonly used metal is
  iron.

Stainless steel
Carbon steel

• Carbon steel is found in a variety of hardness
  levels based on the amount of carbon used in the
  metal. Carbon gives strength to the metal, but it
  reduces the melting point, malleability, and
  ductility of it.

• Stainless Steel is composed of carbon steel,
  aluminum, chromium, and other elements that
  combine to form a highly corrosion-resistant
  metal. Stainless steel is known for its unique
  shining silver mirror coating. It is lustrous,
  and brittle, and does not tarnish in the air.

5
Copper

• Due to its anti-corrosive properties, stainless
  steel is used in myriad applications. For
  example, cookware, industrial and domestic
  appliances, surgical instruments, cookware, metal
  ceramics, cabinet fittings, and so on.

• Copper is a good conductor of electricity. It is
  tough, ductile, and malleable. Copper is also
  resistant to corrosion in several atmospheres,
  which makes it useful in various industrial
  environments.

Brass
Bronze

• Bronze is a copper alloy that has been in use for
  ages. Bronze has many better qualities than some
  of the popularly used metals.
• Bronze has a low melting point, and it is
  stronger than copper. It is heavier than steel.

• Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. It is
  widely used for a wide spectrum of items.

Aluminum

• Since aluminum is lightweight, versatile, and
  long-lasting metal, it is also one of the
  favorite metals for the fabrication process. It
  is used for making several useful items
