Steel Applications
Because steel is strong but relatively inexpensive when compared to many other metals, it’s a popular material for many large and small building products and mechanical frames. Steel is also a good material to form using metal working tools, meaning that holes can be punched in it to house bolts and cut outs for other parts of a piece of equipment. Steel from Metal Associates is used in applications like:
