How can I tell what metal I have?

The easiest and most common way to figure out what kind of metal you have is by grabbing a magnet.  Hint:  If you don’t have a handheld magnet handy, any magnet will do – even one from your fridge.

​

If the magnet sticks to your metal:  You have a ferrous metal in your hands, something common like steel or iron.

​

If the magnet does not stick to your metal:  The metal you have is a non-ferrous metal. Many common metals, like copper, aluminum, brass, and stainless steel are categorized as non-ferrous metals.
