Q:I need to know which cookware set is better. We are trying to get rid of the ones we have here. They are Teflon. I have heard that stainless steel (aluminum) and hard Ionized are good, but which is the best one.

I have a set of Stainless and individual pots and saute/frying pans that are non-stick. Calphalon is a good brand and should serve you well for now. They are easy to clean and work well for most dishes. If I looked at the right set of pots, these should also be oven safe which is great for stews and roasts. If you get into cooking you will probably want to purchase some stainless for preparing sauces. The fond (which is the basis for many quick sauces) from meat, poultry and fish will not accumulate on non-stick pans as well as stainless pans.

Q:How are steel coils used in the manufacturing of shipping containers?

Steel coils are used in the manufacturing of shipping containers to provide strength, durability, and structural integrity. These coils are processed and shaped into the necessary components, such as walls, floors, and roofs, which are then assembled to create a sturdy container. The steel coils also allow for easy transportation and stacking of the containers, ensuring safe and efficient shipping of goods worldwide.

Q:Can steel coils be coated with magnetic materials?

Yes, steel coils can be coated with magnetic materials.

Q:What are the different types of steel coil edge finishes?

There are primarily three types of steel coil edge finishes: mill edge, sheared edge, and slit edge. The mill edge is the untreated edge of the steel coil, which is produced during the manufacturing process. The sheared edge is a straight cut made by a shear machine, resulting in a smooth and clean edge. The slit edge is created by cutting the coil along its width, typically using a slitting machine, and it may have a slightly rougher edge compared to the other two finishes.

Q:I went to the store to get metal to make a knife and they had weldable steel and plate steel. Which one would be best/ which steels would be best for what i want to do?

'Plate' does not refer to a specific alloy. It simply describes the shape in which the metal is sold. Various steel alloys have varying degrees of weldability. Some weld well, with good strength. Others weld poorly, and crack or become very weak. Try looking up information on the specific alloy of steel.

Q:How are steel coils used in the production of steel fasteners?

Steel coils are used in the production of steel fasteners by being uncoiled and then shaped into various forms such as screws, nuts, bolts, and washers. The coils provide a continuous and efficient supply of high-quality steel material, ensuring consistent and reliable production of fasteners.

Q:i found a similar question asking what metals were in stainless steel but i don't know if they are the same.... they probably aren't.

steel is iron with a little bit of carbon mixed in. how much carbon determines the hardness of the steel. stainless steel is the same mostly, it has nickle and chromium added in to make it corrosion resistant.

Q:Which one has more electrical resistivity? Wood or steel? And why?I know that the resistivity depends on the material of the conductor, but i want a perfect explaination please.Thnx in advance :)

Wood is made up of elements which are non-metals with a high electron affinity. Specifically, carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, and some nitrogen. Furthermore the covalent bond structure in wood means electrons are tightly bound and cannot move easily from atom to another. Not without adding a great deal of energy to the first. Steel is mostly iron, which is a metal. Metals have low electron affinity. The outer electrons in metals are bound very loosely, so that they can move from atom to atom using almost no energy. Metals tend to conduct electricity very easily.

Q:Are steel-capped boots safer than non-capped ones when working with horses? I have been told that sometimes if a horse steps on you, the steel crushing into your foot is more dangerous than if you just had normal wellies on, as at least with normal wellies there is some flexibility. Any horsey people out there got any experience with this? Thanks!

Having had horses tap-dance on my toes while I was wearing normal leather boots, resulting in loss of toenails every now and then, I gotta say that steel-toed boots sound like an awfully good idea.

Q:How are steel coils used in the automotive stamping industry?

Steel coils are used in the automotive stamping industry to provide a continuous supply of flat steel sheets that are then fed into stamping machines. These coils are unrolled, straightened, and then fed through the stamping presses to create various automotive parts, such as body panels, chassis components, and other structural parts. The use of steel coils ensures efficiency, precision, and a consistent quality in the production of automotive parts.
