SOME ENGINEERING MATERIALS:-

Material Properties

Aluminium :- Lightweight; soft; relatively low strength; can corrode
but not rust; non-magnetic; low cost; easy to machine but chips have a tendency to weld to tool bits; very useful for many types of projects where strength is not required.

Brass :- Heavy; moderate strength; can corrode but not rust; non-magnetic; relatively expensive; machines very easily but has a tendency to 'grab' drill bits; visually appealing in ornamental applications; usually used sparingly due to cost.

Drill Rod :- Heavy; strong; corrosion resistant but can rust; magnetic; moderate cost; moderately difficult to machine due to hardness; accurately dimensioned (.001) rod stock is excellent for shaft-type applications; can be hardened for tool-making applications.

Steel-cold rolled :- Heavy; strong; rusts easily so must be protected from moisture; magnetic; low cost; moderately easy to machine but difficult to get a good surface finish; good for general
applications where low cost and high strength or magnetic properties are required. Alloys such as 12L14 are easier to machine.

Stainless Steel :- Heavy; strong; extremely rust and corrosion
resistant; non-magnetic; relatively high cost; relatively difficult to machine due to strength & hardness; best for outdoor and boating
applications.
