The strength, durability, and longevity of steel caskets depends first of all on the quality and thickness of the metal sheets used. The United States Standard Gauge for the thickness of metal sheets is based on the number of sheets required to total one inch. The gauge number (ga) informs about the thickness of the steel sheets in such a way that the lower the gauge number, the thicker the steel.

Is steel harder than wood?

Of course, not. The sheer density of steel, in any thickness, relegates wood to a poor substitute in any regard to strength. If you were to refine your question as to longevity under certain conditions, perhaps, the answer would be different. As a general rule, steel, is far stronger than wood. +++ The question refers to hardness, not strength. Wood is softer than steel, but that alone is not why it is also weaker. Introducing longevity merely complicates the matter!
