  2. Carbon, used to harden iron into steel. Very useful when iron is to be a nail
  3. Zinc, in the galvanized nail. Extends the nail's life.
  4. Aluminum, used in situation where rusting is a problem such as a roof.
  5. Nickel, also a relatively cheap metal that both hardens and helps reduce rusting.
