Description: 1.25" diameter X 1 inch thick. From left, beryllium copper (mostly copper) good for springs & no-spark tools Inconel, a nickel-copper alloy (mostly nickel) high strength at high temperatures. Steel. Iron + carbon, but not too much. Titanium. Talk about hard! I killed 2 files taking saw marks off my first Ti sample. Aluminum. Not as hard, lighter, softer Magnesium. Really light. Really soft. Some hard Italian cheeses are harder, I'd swear it. IMG_5988
