2. Hemming and seaming - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemming_and_seaming

   Hemming and seaming are two similar metalworking processes in which a sheet metal edge is rolled over onto itself. Hemming is the process in which the edge is rolled flush to itself, while a seam joins the edges of two materials. [1] Hems are commonly used to reinforce an edge, hide burrs and rough edges, and improve appearance. [1]

3. Termite shield - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Termite_shield

   Termite shields can be made up of various materials. One type of termite shield is made from various sheet metals including galvanized steel, terne, copper, or aluminum. The metal is formed to fit between the top of the foundation wall and the bottom of the wood sill plate. The edges of the termite shield are typically hemmed, extended slightly ...

4. Curling (metalworking) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curling_(metalworking)

   Curling is a sheet metal forming process used to form the edges into a hollow ring. Curling can be performed to eliminate sharp edges and increase the moment of inertia near the curled end. [ 1 ] Other parts are curled to perform their primary function, such as door hinges .

5. Burr (edge) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burr_(edge)

   Metal burr extending beyond the edge of the cut piece, view on the cut face (top) and from the bottom (bottom) A burr is a raised edge or small piece of material that remains attached to a workpiece after a modification process. [1] It is usually an unwanted piece of material and is removed with a deburring tool in a process called deburring.

6. Corrugated galvanised iron - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrugated_galvanised_iron

   Corrugated galvanised iron (CGI) or steel, colloquially corrugated iron (near universal), wriggly tin (taken from UK military slang), pailing (in Caribbean English), corrugated sheet metal (in North America), zinc (in Cyprus and Nigeria) or custom orb / corro sheet (Australia), is a building material composed of sheets of hot-dip galvanised ...

7. Rolling (metalworking) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_(metalworking)

   For thin sheet metal with a thickness less than 200 μm (0.0079 in), [citation needed] the rolling is done in a cluster mill because the small thickness requires a small diameter rolls. [10] To reduce the need for small rolls pack rolling is used, which rolls multiple sheets together to increase the effective starting thickness.
