Stainless steel is steel alloyed with chromium and other possible elements. This produces a steel with good resistance to corrosion.

Stainless steel's corrosion resistance is only effective in oxidising environments. When exposed to acids the corrosion resistance of stainless steel is no better than that of mild steel. William's specialises in Stainless Steel Fabrication.

Aluminium is a lightweight material with an excellent strength-to-weight ratio. It is easy to machine and form. Aluminium also possesses its own anticorrosion mechanism. When exposed to air, a hard oxide coating forms on the surface and seals the metal from the environment.

Carbon steel is sometimes referred to as 'mild steel' or 'plain carbon steel'. Typically carbon steels are stiff and strong.

They also exhibit ferromagnetism (i.e. they are magnetic). This means they are extensively used in motors and electrical appliances.

Zintec is the trade name for British Steel plc cold rolled sheet and coil that has been electrolytically coated with a thin layer of zinc. It is produced at steel thicknesses of 0.4 to 2.0mm and contains a thickness of zinc from 1.0 to 1.75 microns.

Zintec can be recognised by its matt grey appearance significantly different to the bright spangled surface produced by hot dip processes of galvanizing and Galvatite.
