  • 5 Common Types of Non-Ferrous Metals

    5 Common Types of Non-Ferrous Metals0

    There are over 90 metallic elements listed on the Periodic Table. While no two metals are the same, they can all be classified as either ferrous or non-ferrous depending on whether they contain iron. Ferrous metals contain iron, whereas non-ferrous metals don’t contain iron. Below are five of the most common types of non-ferrous metals.

    Zinc-Plated vs Galvanized Steel: What’s the Difference?0

    Moisture can wreak havoc on many steel products. Products made of carbon steel, for instance, are susceptible to oxidation when exposed to moisture. As moisture settles on the surface of a carbon steel product, it can trigger a chemical reaction known as oxidation that eats through the material from which it’s made. To protect against
