One, what materials are used in hardware building materials?
Five metals, commonly referred to as gold, silver, copper, iron, and tin, are classified as hardware materials.
1、Metal building materials are generally divided into two main categories: large metal building materials and small metal building materials.
The main building materials include steel plates, reinforcing bars, flat iron, universal angle steel, channel steel, I-beams, and various types of steel materials.
Small Five Metals Construction Materials primarily include architectural hardware, galvanized steel, locks and nails, wire, steel wire mesh, wire cutters, household hardware, and various construction tools.

2. based on the properties and applications of hardware and building materials, they can be categorized into eight main types: ferrous metal materials, non-ferrous metal materials, mechanical parts, transmission equipment, auxiliary tools, working tools, building hardware, and household hardware.
Two. What does the category of "Metal Construction Materials" include?
1、Mechanical hardware
Fasteners, rolling bearings, belts and chains, lubricating parts, keys and splines, welding equipment and lifting equipment, etc.
2、Metal materials
Steel materials, non-ferrous metal materials, non-metallic materials, and steel.
3、Metal hardware products
Alloys, metalworking materials, carbon steel, stainless steel, metal wire, rope, metal mesh, scrap metal, etc.
4、General accessories
Fasteners, bearings, springs, seals, cables, gears, molds, and grinding tools.
5、Hardware tools
Daily tools, grinding, hydraulic, lifting, measuring, saws, hammers, screwdrivers, and wrenches.
6、Architectural Hardware
Air tools, doors and windows, fittings, kitchens, lighting fixtures, sanitary ware, locks, construction, building materials, and coatings.
7、Electrical contractors
Low-voltage electrical equipment, instruments, chargers, motors, connectors, anti-static products, cables, insulating materials, and electronic materials.
