What are Ferrous Metals and Non- Ferrous Metals?
The key difference between ferrous metals and non-ferrous metals lies in their iron content and properties:
Ferrous Metals
- Contain iron (Fe) as the main component.
- Magnetic (except for some exceptions like stainless steel).
- Prone to rust and corrosion unless treated or alloyed with other elements.
- Stronger and more durable, making them ideal for construction, automotive, and industrial applications.
Examples: Steel, Cast Iron, Wrought Iron, Stainless Steel
Non-Ferrous Metals
- Do not contain significant amounts of iron (Fe).
- Non-magnetic in most cases.
- More resistant to rust and corrosion, making them ideal for outdoor and marine applications.
- Lighter and more malleable, commonly used in electrical wiring, aircraft, and packaging.
Examples: Copper, Aluminum, Brass, Bronze, Lead, Zinc, Titanium
