2. Stainless steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stainless_steel

   Stainless steel, also known as inox, corrosion-resistant steel (CRES), and rustless steel, is an iron-based alloy containing a minimum level of chromium that is resistant to rusting and corrosion. Stainless steel's resistance to corrosion results from the 10.5%, or more, chromium content which forms a passive film that can protect the material ...

3. Sheet metal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_metal

   The larger the gauge number, the thinner the metal. Commonly used steel sheet metal ranges from 30 gauge to about 7 gauge. Gauge differs between ferrous metals and nonferrous metals such as aluminum or copper. Copper thickness, for example, is measured in ounces, representing the weight of copper contained in an area of one square foot.

4. Radius gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radius_gauge

   A radius gauge, also known as a fillet gauge, [1] is a tool used to measure the radius of an object. [2] Radius gauges require a bright light behind the object to be measured. The gauge is placed against the edge to be checked and any light leakage between the blade and edge indicates a mismatch that requires correction. [3]

5. Sink - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sink

   Stainless steel sinks are widely celebrated for their durability, sleek appearance, and resistance to rust and corrosion. However, many homeowners are baffled when they spot rust stains on their stainless steel sink. [3] One disadvantage of stainless steel is that, being made of thin metal, they tend to be noisier than most other sink materials ...

6. Feeler gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feeler_gauge

   Stainless steel is a common material for feeler gauges. Some feeler gauge sets have a single blade of brass due to the historical reason that early electronic ignition systems required the air gap between the reluctor and the pickup part being set with a non-ferrous metal.

7. Birmingham gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birmingham_gauge

   The Birmingham gauge is also known as the Stubs Iron Wire Gauge or Birmingham Wire Gauge and is distinct from the Stubs Steel Wire Gauge and the British Standard Wire Gauge. It is commonly referred to simply as gauge (abbreviated as G ), [ 3 ] but this should not be confused with the French gauge , a separate system used for measuring the outer ...
