NEW STAINLESS STEEL
GREAT POSSIBILITIES CLAIMED (BRITISH OFFICIAL WIRELESS.) (Received Februai'y 25, 7.56 p.m.) RUGBY, February 24. A new type of stainless steel, which, it is claimed, will revolutionise scores of industries, has been evolved by a Sheffield scientist, Mr F. F. Gordon. Briefly, the method is to give ordinary steel a coating of stainless steel which will protect it from rust. The coating can be as thin as one thousandth of an inch. This opens up possibilities of stainless steel ships, bridges, aeroplanes, railway carriages, and springs, to mention only a few directions in which it is stated that this invention, could be applied.
