Still, iron was the first material to let people build truly tall buildings. The Eiffel Tower, for instance, is actually built out of wrought iron. Wrought iron is strong, but also inconsistent and prone to flaws that are impossible to detect until a particular piece fails catastrophically. This is something that happened regularly throughout the nineteenth century, causing factories to collapse on the heads of the workers below and trains to derail or fall into rivers when the bridges they crossed collapsed. Steel, in comparison, is much more consistent, and as soon as people figured out how to make it in large quantities they began using it for everything. In fact, when people say “wrought iron” in reference to fencing, what they are probably referring to is steel fencing that looks like wrought iron. The confusion might also come from the fact that steel is really just iron worked at higher temperatures to ensure an even distribution of carbon.

Beyond their practical uses, cast iron spears also hold cultural and symbolic significance. In many civilizations, they represented power, heroism, and honor. Warriors wielding such weapons often occupied revered positions within their communities, as they embodied the spirit of valor in battle. In folklore and mythology, legendary figures are frequently depicted carrying spears, highlighting their role in shaping cultural narratives around strength and bravery.

Aluminium's resistance to corrosion is another significant advantage. Unlike wood, which can warp, rot, or require regular maintenance, aluminium profiles are designed to endure various weather conditions without deteriorating. This makes them ideal for applications in diverse climates, from humid coastal areas to dry, inland regions. Furthermore, the surface of aluminium can easily be treated with powder coating or anodizing, allowing for a broad spectrum of colors and finishes that can match any design theme.
