LS FABRICATIONS WHERE SHEETMETAL WORKS

Materials Used

 

 

Stainless steel

Alloy steels usually containing 10–35% chromium. Chromium, together with low carbon content, gives resistance to corrosion and heat. Other elements, such as nickel, titanium, aluminium, copper, nitrogen, molybdenum, titanium, sulphur, niobium, phosphorus, and selenium, are added to increase corrosion resistance to certain environments, enhance resistance to oxidation and produce special characteristics.

Aluminium

Aluminium is a silvery a malleable metallic element found in bauxite, a rock containing aluminium hydroxides that is the principal ore of aluminium.

Brass

Brass is a tough yellow gleaming metal that is an alloy of zinc and copper. Can have the addition of other metallic elements to impart specific properties

 

Copper

Copper is a supple, reddish-brown metallic element that is a good conductor of electricity and heat. Used for coatings, alloys, and wiring

 

Tin

Tin is silvery in colour effortlessly shaped metallic element. Used in alloys such as solder, bronze, and pewter, protective coating for steel. Known best for a seal for food and drink containers, made of thin sheet metal coated with tin or of other thin metal such as aluminium.

 

Nickel

Nickel is a tough corrosion-resistant silvery-white metallic element. Use in batteries, electroplating, catalyst and alloys.

 

Titanium

Titanium is a strong, lightweight, corrosion-resistant silvery metallic element. Used in many manufacturing industries including the car and aerospace industry.

 

Silver

Silver is a gleaming greyish to white metallic element that has the highest thermal and electrical conductivity of any substance. Used in ornaments, jewellery, coins, solders, and conductors.

 

Gold

Gold is a pliable, weighty, corrosion-resistant, yellow metallic element that has a high value. It is found underground in veins and alluvial deposits. Used in jewellery and alloys.

 

Platinum

Platinum is a valuable silvery-white metallic element, highly pliable and flexible and highly resistant to chemicals and heat. Used in jewellery, catalyst, electroplating.

Mild Steel

Mild steel is the most common form of steel as its price is relatively low while it provides material properties that are acceptable for many applications. Mild steel has a low carbon content (up to 0.3%) and is therefore neither extremely brittle nor ductile. It becomes malleable when heated, and so can be forged. It is also often used where large amounts of steel need to be formed, for example as structural steel. Mild steel is low carbon steel with a variety of applications.

 

Zintec

Zintec is a sort of half way between galvanised and uncoated, its electro-plated rather than dipped. It doesn’t rust as easily as uncoated but it will not last as long as hot dip galvanised. The coating is thin enough to weld without getting porosity.Coating  of Zentec lends it self to powder coating
