Metal Furniture
Metal
furniture generally consists of metal legs or frame and nylon
webbing or upholstery of some type. Metal furniture is made from
either aluminium or steel (iron) and once the finish coat is
applied, it is difficult to identify the specific type of metal
with which the furniture is made. One way to tell the difference
between aluminium and steel is to place a magnet on the surface
of the metal. Steel is generally more expensive than aluminium
when used in furniture. However, the price varies with thickness
and specific type of metal as well as the finished use.
Moreover, aluminium must be thicker than steel to be as
stronger.
Aluminium furniture is very popular because it doesn't rust,
however it gets oxidized. When aluminium oxidizes it turns
chalky white. Better quality furniture is usually made of either
cast or heavy tube aluminium.
Steel, on the other hand, is made of a strong tough metal
consisting of iron alloyed with various small percentages of
carbon and other metals. Steel is divided into low, medium and
high carbon. Most of the metal furniture is made of low carbon
steel because it is less expensive and the strength of high
carbon steel is not needed for furniture.
The quality of metal furniture depends on the weight of the
furniture, the way the metal is joined, sturdiness of the
furniture piece, reupholster potential, vent holes and the use
of floor protectors. Moreover, the finish applied to the metal
furniture is equally important for its durability. The most
common finishes used on metal furniture are anodized, brass and
chrome plated, brass, plastic and painted.
