Lightweight Steel Alloys Sheet Metal

Aluminum and aluminum alloys are lightweight non ferrous metals with good corrosion resistance ductility and strength.

Lightweight steel alloys sheet metal.

This metal is a good electrical and thermal conductor. High strength and low cost. This lightweight material is corrosion resistant easy to machine and a good conductor of heat and electricity. Used in corrosion resistant applications.

Aluminum is relatively easy to fabricate by forming machining or welding. O neal steel offers three different grades of stainless steel. Copper brass and bronze commonly called red metals each of these alloys has a high copper content that provides good weather resistance. Light weight for use in many aerospace applications.

It includes alloys 4130 4140 4340 es2100 and 8620. Aircraft bodies and aerospace components are typically composed by lightweight materials such as aluminum titanium and magnesium alloys. In this study incremental sheet forming process isf firstly described in 1994 was considered as an alternative to hot stamping of lightweight alloys. Stainless steel is a modern alloy that was developed in the early 1900 s.

The problem here is that when you try to mix aluminium and steel an alloy of iron aluminium and carbon sometimes the aluminium and iron atoms would fuse together in weird ways forming dense crystalline structures referred to as b2. So you need to mix steel with something to make it lighter and aluminium is the obvious candidate because it s so lightweight and cheap. Its high strength hardness and workability makes stainless steel a useful metal type for a wide variety of uses. Perforated metal sheet materials.

Austenitic ferritic and martensitic.
