Steel from Smart Metal Group
Historically, over time, metals are divided into two main types that are produced in metallurgy and these are the ferrous metals and the non-ferrous metals.
- Non-ferrous metals include copper, brass, aluminum and others.
- Ferrous metals include iron and all its alloys such as chromium, carbon, manganese and others.
In our daily life, the main types of ferrous metals that find the widest application and are most familiar to us are steel and cast iron. These iron alloys are also found most often in industry, construction and everyday life. The main difference between steel and cast iron is the percentage of carbon in them, if it is below 2% it is steel, if it is above 2% it is cast iron. Although at first glance the difference does not seem big to us, in terms of characteristics the two types of black metal are radically different.
- Cast iron does not have the possibility of forging, drawing and other similar processes, but is poured directly into molds so as to obtain the desired product, mainly for household and various types of industries.
- In contrast, steel can be used to obtain different types of products, and it has properties and qualities that are particularly valued in construction and industry.
As a pure metal, iron is characterized by high plasticity, as well as strong sensitivity to various external factors, as it oxidizes and corrodes. However, the various alloys that are produced from it possess new and additional properties and characteristics that make them widely sought after and used products. In general, however, despite their susceptibility to corrosion, iron alloys are resistant, strong and durable.
Application of with tomato today
Iron is considered one of the most common and widely used metals worldwide. At the same time, ferrous metallurgy is one of the oldest branches of industrial development. It is precisely this industry that gives impetus to a number of countries to develop and achieve modern industrial excellence. Ferrous metallurgy served as the basis for the development and development of the metalworking industry, and the products produced thanks to it are used today in almost all sectors of the economy. Thanks to ferrous metallurgy, the widely used cast iron, steel and rolled products are also produced.
In recent years, the ferrous metallurgy industry confidently occupies a leading position in the industry. Ferrous metallurgy is indispensable in such sectors as mechanical engineering, construction, utilities, military-industrial construction and agriculture.
- Cast iron, for example, is mainly used for construction and engineering castings, making castings for heating appliances, engineering, trailer and truck drums, manhole covers, siphons, grates, and more.
- Iron as a metal is subject to recycling and multiple processing, which allows and further expands the areas in which it can be used. Apart from application in construction, almost all industries and engineering, it also finds wide application in everyday life. Steel, on the other hand, is mainly used in construction.
Application of steel in everyday life
Ferrous metals are used in every home, garden, house, office, etc. They are now almost an indispensable part of the creation of various types of projects and facilities for the home. Some of the main areas in which ferrous metals are used in everyday life are:
The production of doors, portals, shutters and others
The production of ferrous metal doors involves the use of various types of profiles and sheet metal. Today, almost any type of door and portal can be made to order and to order, with different designs, sizes and appearances to meet your wishes and interior.
Doors for different types of rooms, sliding doors for the home, garage doors, portals and others can be made. The doors themselves can be primed, painted, powder coated or galvanized. At the same time, wrought iron can be added to them, which will turn them into a real work of art. Custom doors can be ordered from Smart Metal Group.
Production of fences, railings, gratings and others
Different types of fences, external and internal railings for stairs, terraces, landings and other gratings with different applications can be made from ferrous metals. They can combine the use of hollow or solid black profiles, sheet metal, wrought iron, and the choice is entirely up to you.
Visors, canopies, market stalls and other facilities
Ferrous metals are suitable for the construction of budget projects for canopies, sheds, market stalls, greenhouses and other types of facilities for the home and garden. Naturally, since ferrous metals are prone to corrosion, they are additionally treated with primer and paint to protect them and require occasional maintenance, but on the other hand, you will certainly be able to create the desired design and size thanks to them of the project.
Shelves, racks, furniture and other interior solutionsBlack metals are increasingly used for the creation of various types of interior solutions, as the different sizes and thicknesses of the profiles and products from black metal allow the production of tables, chairs, bookcases, racks, desks and others of different types and types.
