Conduit? Not so much. It's pretty brittle metal - akin to white metal
actually.
That is nuts. EMT, electrical metallic tubing, is steel. It is far
from brittle, you can bend it any way you want. What is properly
called conduit is plain old pipe, the kind that carries water and gas.
Sorry dude - EMT is thin walled flat cold rolled low grade
non-hardened steel.
It's basically white metal.
White metals contain things like lead, tin, antimony, zinc. No iron,
no carbon.
It is mild steel, like about 95% of the steel in use. As in autos,
buildings, bridges, ships. You want to be different and call steel
white metal, you have a problem. It about as brittle as bubble gum.
