Industry:Metals
Involves grinding the top and/or bottom of carbon or alloy steel plate or bars into close tolerance.
Industry:Metals
New metalmaking complex that is built “from scratch,” presumably on a green field.
Industry:Metals
An exotic alloy usually obtained as a by-product of zirconium production with outstanding corrosion resistance and good mechanical properties. It is added to specialty alloys for use in jet engine parts and as control rod material in nuclear reactors.
Industry:Metals
Defined in terms of the method of measurement. Usually the resistance to indentation:
# Stiffness or temper of wrought products
# Machinability characteristics.
Industry:Metals
Process that increases the hardness of steel, i.e., the degree to which steel will resist cutting, abrasion, penetration, bending, and stretching.
Industry:Metals
A general term given to rolled flanged sections that have at least one dimension of their cross sections three inches or greater. The category includes beams, channels, tees and zees if the depth dimension is three inches or greater, and angles if the length of the leg is three inches or greater.
Industry:Metals
Steel with more than 0. 3% carbon. The more carbon that is dissolved in the iron, the less formable and the tougher the steel becomes. High-carbon steel’s hardness makes it suitable for plow blades, shovels, bedsprings, cutting edges, or other high-wear applications.
Industry:Metals
A specific group of steel in which higher strength, and in some cases additional resistance to atmospheric corrosion or improved formability, are obtained by moderate amounts of one or more alloying elements such as columbium, vanadium, titanium, used alone or in combination.
Industry:Metals
A coil of steel rolled on a hot-strip mill (hot-rolled steel). It can be sold in this form to customers or further processed into other finished products.
