The allergy to cobalt and chromium is possible, but it is very rare; this is the cause of contact dermatitis.

The allergy to titanium is very improbable; not confirmed, possible reported by patients with mental health problems.

What metals are used in surgical plates and screws?

Titanium and stainless steel are the most common metals used in surgical plates and screws due to their biocompatibility, strength, and resistance to corrosion. In some cases, more specialized metals such as cobalt-chrome alloys or tantalum may be used for specific applications.


Cobalt chrome alloy?

Cobalt chrome alloy is a group of wear-resistant, non-magnetic alloys known for their high strength, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. They are commonly used in medical implants, aerospace components, and high-performance engineering applications. Cobalt chrome alloys have excellent fatigue resistance and are known for their ability to withstand high temperatures.


What shiny mirror-like metal is mixed with iron to make stainless steel?

Chrome is used with iron to create stainless steel alloys.


What metal alloy is gun barrels made of?

most often a firearm's barrel will be made with high quality steel. In some special cases the barrel will be chrome lined or will be made with stainless steel. both of which are used to prevent corrosion, expand the life of the firearm's barrel and to make cleaning easier.


What is Chrome plating ams 2460 class2a type 1?

AMS 2460 class 2a type 1 is a specification for chrome plating on carbon steels, corrosion-resistant steels, and copper alloys. It defines the thickness and appearance requirements for the plated components. The process involves applying a layer of chromium onto the surface of the metal to improve its corrosion resistance, hardness, and aesthetics.

What is chrome?

Chrome is a basic chemical element that is a metal (similar to gold and silver). it is commonly used to plate metals to give it a hard, shiny protective layer, such as car parts. This is applied by electrolysis plating process. Chrome is mixed with other metals to form steel alloys and other metals. Chrome may be a paint color that dries in a shiny silver finish. It is not the same as a silver paint because it will have a reflective finish.
