TENSILE STRENGTH

Tensile strength (fr: Résistance à la traction): The amount of applied force required to break the material, usually measured in pounds per square inch (PSI).

TIG WELDING

TIG Welding (fr: ): Tungsten Inert Gas welding, using a non-consumable tungsten electrode and shielding gas.

TIN

Tin (fr: Etain): Tin is a non-toxic metal used as a coating for other metals, such as steel, to prevent corrosion. Tin is also used in die-cast alloys, biocides, lead solder, bronze and as an alloy with titanium.

TINPLATE

Tinplate (fr: Fer blanc): A thin steel or iron sheet coated with tin – used to make tin cans.

TOOL STEEL

Tool steel (fr: Acier à outils): Carbon and alloy steels commonly used to make tools. Characterised by high hardness and resistance to abrasion, these materials often come with high toughness and resistance to softening at elevated temperature. Such attributes are generally obtained with high carbon and alloy content.

TUBE AND PIPE NOMINAL DIAMETER

Tube and Pipe Nominal Diameter (fr: ): The designated size of a tube or pipe, typically its approximate outside diameter.

TUBE BENDING

Tube Bending (fr: ): Bending metal tubes or pipes to specific angles or shapes using specialized machinery.
