Machine age alloy steels were developed as improved tool steels and as newly available stainless steels. Alloy steels serve many applications, from hand tools and flatware to turbine blades of jet engines and in nuclear reactors. Because of iron's ferromagnetic properties, some alloys find important applications where their responses to ...
Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon with improved strength and fracture resistance compared to other forms of iron. Because of its high tensile strength and low cost, steel is one of the most commonly manufactured materials in the world. Steel is used in buildings, as concrete reinforcing rods, in bridges, infrastructure, tools, ships, trains ...
Malleable iron. Wrought iron. High-strength low-alloy steel (HSLA) is a type of alloy steel that provides better mechanical properties or greater resistance to corrosion than carbon steel. HSLA steels vary from other steels in that they are not made to meet a specific chemical composition but rather specific mechanical properties.

Mangalloy is a unique non-magnetic steel with extreme anti-wear properties. The material is very resistant to abrasion and will achieve up to three times its surface hardness during conditions of impact, without any increase in brittleness which is usually associated with hardness. [2] This allows mangalloy to retain its toughness.
SAE 304 stainless steel is the most common stainless steel. It is an alloy of iron, carbon, chromium and nickel. It is an austenitic stainless steel, and is therefore not magnetic. It is less electrically and thermally conductive than carbon steel. It has a higher corrosion resistance than regular steel and is widely used because of the ease in ...
The most common austenitic stainless steel and most common of all stainless steel is Type 304, also known as 18/8 or A2. Type 304 is extensively used in such items as cookware, cutlery, and kitchen equipment. Type 316, also known as A4, is the next most common austenitic stainless steel. Some 300 series, such as Type 316, also contain some ...
A36 steel is a common structural steel alloy used in the United States. [1] The A36 (UNS K02600) standard was established by the ASTM International. The standard was published in 1960 and has been updated several times since. [2] Prior to 1960, the dominant standards for structural steel in North America were A7 (until 1967 [3]) and A9 (for ...
