For one, they are not affected by magnetic forces. This is sometimes quite desirable. There are other advantages, as well.
Hunan Nonferrous Metals was created in 2004.
Tongling Nonferrous Metals was created in 1949.
Disadvantages- may be more expensive and not as strong as ferrous metals.Advantages- may be a better electrical conductor, not affected by magnetism, may be corrosion resistant.
An oxide
Aluminum, chromium, titanium and nickel are just a few examples of nonferrous metals.
Non Ferrous metals are those metals which do not contain iron.They are not magnetic and are usually more resistant to corrosion than ferrous metals.

Because of their tendency to stick to the blade.
Ferrous rust's and non ferrous doesn't. :))
