Metals commonly occurring in alloys with iron, such as chromium, nickel, manganese, vanadium, molybdenum, cobalt, silicon, tantalum, and columbium (niobium).
Iron and ferro-alloy metals.
Metals containing a large proportion of iron.
Iron and steel products, including tin coated food and beverage cans.
Ferrous and non-ferrous are common ways of characterising metals. Ferrous metals comprise iron, generally containing at least 50%. Steels and irons make up most of this family.
magnetic metals which are predominantly composed of iron.
Metals which are iron-based. See non-ferrous metals.
metals that are predominantly composed of iron, usually include steel cans and large items like automobiles and refrigerators
Metals containing iron, especially with a valence of 2 or a valence lower than in a corresponding ferric compound. For example, Cast Iron, Alloy Steel, Tool Steel, and Stainless Steel.
Magnetic metals derived from iron or steel; products made from ferrous metals include appliances, furniture, containers, and packaging like steel drums and barrels. Recycled products include processing tin/steel cans, strapping, and metals from appliances into new products.
