Terästuotteille

Terästuotteille refers to products made of steel. Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon, typically with carbon content between 0.2% and 2.1% by weight. Other alloying elements can also be present to enhance its properties, such as manganese, chromium, vanadium, and tungsten. The addition of these elements can significantly improve steel's strength, hardness, toughness, and resistance to corrosion or heat.

The production of steel involves melting iron ore and other materials in a furnace and then refining the molten metal. The resulting steel can be cast into various shapes or further processed through rolling, forging, or extrusion to create a wide range of finished goods.

Terästuotteille are ubiquitous in modern society due to steel's versatility, strength, and cost-effectiveness. Common examples include construction materials like beams, rebar, and roofing, as well as automotive parts, appliances, tools, cutlery, and various industrial machinery. Stainless steel, a popular subtype, is known for its corrosion resistance and is frequently used in kitchens, medical equipment, and outdoor applications. The specific properties of a steel product are determined by its composition and manufacturing process, allowing for tailored applications across numerous industries.
