coat of mail Explanation: coat of mail n. pl. coats of mail An armored coat made of chain mail, interlinked rings, or overlapping metal plates; a hauberk. hope this can be useful: Carburizing wrought iron is often referred to as case hardening and has been known to metal workers from antiquity.13 The process is to take an iron or low carbon steel bar or plate and pack it in an organic material in a sealed vessel and then bake at high temperature (a red heat) for a long period of time. The organic material supplies carbon, which leaches into the item creating steel over time. One of the best materials for this is charcoal dust. http://www.oakeshott.org/metal.html |
