Q:I've created something but it's a huge secret. Anyways I need to know everything and anything about steel. Like the iron steel. ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING. Best answer goes to the person with the most correct information. Please this is really important.

If you want to know everything about steel, there's no way you're going to get an answer on Yahoo that is comprehensive enough. What you want to do is get some books on steel metallurgy, engineering properties of materials, and maybe machine design depending on your application. Topics will include molecular structure, material properties, alloying, stress and strain, work hardening, creep, computing damage and lifetime cycles, corrosion, toughness vs hardness, heat treating, and a ton of others. If you want to sharpen steel, that is a whole topic in itself concerning different blade profiles and their sharpness, edge holding, ease of sharpening, type of grind etc.

Q:I had a damascus steel katana made for me and was wondering if I could put gun blue on it to make the steel black and it still work right

There okorder , the true Damascus is a region of spain, which is similar to getting swords made in Pakistan

Q:How is the quality of steel coils determined?

The quality of steel coils is determined through various tests and inspections, including visual examination, dimensional inspection, mechanical properties testing, and chemical analysis. These assessments help identify defects, such as surface imperfections, cracks, or variations in thickness and width, as well as ensure the desired mechanical properties and chemical composition of the steel.

Q:Well the other day i told my friend that when you put a compass near steel it will screw up and he said only magnets do that then i showed him and it worked then he said: that'ss because steel has its own magnet in it coz it builds up static electricity is that correct what he said? thanks

No. Steel does not build up static electricity by itself. Also, magnetic fields are made by moving electricity, not static electicity. The steel conducts magnetism, so it changes the earth's magnetic field near itself by conducting the field through itself. The larger effect is a magnet near a piece of steel: the compass has a magnet, and when you place it near a ferromagnetic material, it attracts. Try putting a refridgerator magnet against the fridge - it sticks because it attracts.

Q:Can steel coils be coated with chrome?

Yes, steel coils can be coated with chrome through a process known as electroplating.

Q:What are the common processing defects in steel coils?

The common processing defects in steel coils include surface imperfections such as scratches, dents, and stains, as well as edge wave, coil set, camber, and crossbow. Other defects may include coil breaks, oil spots, rust, and uneven thickness or width variation.

Q:I'm looking for the weight of different types of steel and haven't found anything helpful!!thank you

Just know the type of steel ,its density. Density gives you weight per unit of volume. For example: The density of mild steel is approximately 7.85 g/cm^3 (0.284 lb/in^3) From above , you can say that 1 cm^3 of volume of mild steel have 7.85 gram weight.

Q:My boyfriend is a loyal follower of this guy called Dr. Steel.

Dr. Steel is an extremely complex phenomenon, a bit of a metaphorical nesting doll. On the surface, Dr. Steel can appear to some as simply a method actor musician with an over-the-top gimmick. Just underneath that facade lies an enigma; he makes some people wonder if he's really serious, just trying to entertain, or completely barking mad. But underneath the second facade, Dr. Steel is really acclaimed comic-book writer and chaos magickian, Grant Morrison. Make no mistake, he really thinks he is Dr. Steel. He has taken method acting and ceremonial magick to the highest levels, and fully intends to take over (or make over) the world. What's more, in the three short years since handing over his comic-book authorship to a ghost writer, he has amassed tens of thousands of followers worldwide. I've done several polls among Dr. Steel fans, and the results show that for every one person who has officially signed up, there are ten more loyal followers who have not.

Q:Eutectoid Steel

Eutectic steel is used to produce pearlite, bainite, spheroidite and martensite steels. Those steels vary in strength, hardness and ductility. One uses martensite steel for example in razor blade manufacturing. Of course there is no end to the various uses of these steels.

Q:I've heard on some 1911 forums that the slides of Armscor guns are now extruded. What is extruded steel? How is it made? Are they strong (4140carbon steel was used in the process).
