Next is a list of ferrous metals that gives the properties, composition as well as uses of the different ferrous metals.

Mild Steel
    Mild steel is the most often used ferrous metal. This is made up of 0. 15 to 0. 30% carbon and the rest is iron. Seeing that mild steel carries low carbon content, it can't be hardened and tempered, however, it can be case hardened. It is malleable and ductile and bends very easily. Mild steel is used in the manufacture of nut products, bolts, screws, girders and other general metal products.

Wrought Iron
    Wrought iron is made up of less than 0. 008% carbon. As it is just about 100% pure iron, it is highly resistant to corrosion and oxidation. It is strong and hard, but, fibrous and flexible. Wrought iron is usually welded, machined and plated quickly. It is used to create ornamental gates and railings.

Cast Iron
    Cast iron is another that is popularly used ferrous metal. It is composed of 2 to 6% of carbon and 94 to 98% of iron. It is tough and strong but quite brittle. Cast iron is known for a high compressive strength and is resistant to oxidation. It is usually classified into different types like malleable cast iron, gray cast iron and white cast iron. Cast iron is usually used in the manufacture of heavy crushing machinery, brake drums, machine tool parts, car cylinder blocks, machine handles and gear wheels, plumbing material, and many more.

Carbon Steel
    Carbon steel, also referred to as tool steel or cast steel, is an iron alloy having 0. 5 to 1. 5% carbon. The major property of carbon steel is its durability. It could be hardened and tempered and is quite ductile. Carbon steel is especially employed in the manufacture of tools just like chisels, drills, shears and hammer heads. It has a smooth covering of black oxide and turns into hard and brittle on heating.

Stainless Steel
    Stainless steel often called corrosion steel, is an alloy of iron, chromium and nickel. The important property of stainless steel is its high level of resistance to corrosion. It is hard and proof to stains, for this reason, it is identified as stainless steel. It is very popularly used in kitchen cutlery and cookware, kitchen draining boards, pipes and medical instruments.

    The above article covers everything about the topic ferrous metals list. Due to ferrous metals' unique qualities, they are seen to possess a wide variety of purposes. Hence, those metals are very significant and very useful!
