  2. Mill scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mill_scale

    Mill scale is a complex oxide that contains around 70% iron with traces of nonferrous metals and alkaline compounds. Reduced iron powder may be obtained by conversion of mill scale into a single highest oxide i.e. hematite (Fe 2 O 3) followed by reduction with hydrogen.

  3. Corrugated galvanised iron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrugated_galvanised_iron

    Common sizes of corrugated material can range from a very thin 30 gauge (0.012 inches, 0.3 mm) to a relatively thick 6 gauge (0.1943 inches, 5 mm). Thicker or thinner gauges may also be produced. Other materials such as thermoplastic and fiberglass-reinforced plastic sheets are also produced with corrugations. Clear or translucent products can ...

  4. List of rail transport modelling scale standards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_rail_transport...

    When H0 scale was being introduced, the motors available were too large [4] to fit in scale-sized bodies and so as a compromise the scale was increased from 3.5 mm to 4 mm to the foot, but the gauge was not changed so other elements could be shared. For 00 therefore the track is about 12.5% narrower than it should be for the scale used.

  5. Weathering steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weathering_steel

    Weathering steel, often referred to by the genericised trademark COR-TEN steel and sometimes written without the hyphen as corten steel, is a group of steel alloys that form a stable external layer of rust that eliminates the need for painting. U.S. Steel (USS) holds the registered trademark on the name COR-TEN. [1]

    Due to Scale creep, modern 30 mm figures may be similar to 1:64 models , but appear larger due to bulky sculpting and thick bases. At an exact scale of 1:60 (30.48 mm), it matches common battlemap grids where 1 inch represents 5 feet. 32 mm: ≈5.7 mm: ≈1:54: Heroic scale of 30 mm miniatures. Currently, the most common size of miniature figures.

    The scale he used was non-standard (reported as 1:666), and may have been influenced by toy ships then available, but as the hobby progressed, and other rule sets came into use, it was progressively supplemented by the series 1:600, 1:1200, and 1:2400. In Britain, 1:3000 became popular and these models also have come into use in the USA.

  8. Corrugated - Wikipedia

    Corrugated galvanised iron, a building material composed of sheets of cold-rolled hot-dip galvanised mild steel; Corrugated plastic, a wide range of extruded twinwall plastic-sheet products produced from high-impact polypropylene resin; Corrugated stainless steel tubing, tubing made of stainless steel with corrugation on the inside or outside

  9. Sheet metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_metal

    Sheet metal is metal formed into thin, flat pieces, usually by an industrial process. Thicknesses can vary significantly; extremely thin sheets are considered foil or leaf, and pieces thicker than 6 mm (0.25 in) are considered plate, such as plate steel, a class of structural steel. Sheet metal is available in flat pieces or coiled strips.
