If you mean the part of the dishwasher other than the door, it's made of either plastic or stainless steel (whatever the inside is made of, that's the same as the outside). If you mean the door, either painted steel or stainless steel.

What metal is in a washing machine?

A washing machine is basically made of an alloy that does not corrode easily. Stainless steel is found in some. This is Iron witch also contain Nickel and Chromium. Some manufacturers use high quality stainless steel in their washing machines. This metal has got a higher content of Chromium and make it even more resistant to corrosion. In many cases, this metal is acid proof too. The box however is mostly made out of the cheapest metal possible, and this does corrode easily when the paint or galvanization comes off.


Does felt fall apart in the washing machine?

Felt made of acrylic fibers WILL fall apart when washed by machine. Felt made of wool is actually CREATED by machine washing and drying woven wool fabric. I haven't any experience washing felt made of polyester. Why don't your throw a small piece in with a load of like-colored laundry and test it yourself?


Who invented the washing machines?

The first washing machine was designed by H. Sidgier of Great Britain in 1782. The first patented washer in the United States was by Nathaniel C Briggs in 1797. It was a manual device. (The US Patent Office was destroyed by fire in 1836, so there are no details or drawings.) The first electric washing machine was invented in 1906 by Alva J. Fisher. 1908 the Hurley Machine Co made the first electric one invented by Alva Fisher. The machine was called Thor.


Does a washing machine need a magnet to operate?

The answer is both yes and no.It actually depends on the kind of washing machine in question.The problem is the motion.A washing machine need some kind of an engine or motor in order to move the cloths back and forth. This can of course be done manually.If we rule out manual washing machines, and also only count in electrical ones then these can be made in two different ways.The motor causing the tumbling or the motion in the washing machine can be made with both permanent magnets like NeoDym, or with purely electrical pulses creating strong electromagnetic fields.Most motors in washing machines made today are made without magnets. It is cheaper to make purely electrical motors where the electricity provides the magnetic fields needed. By electronically rotate the magnetic field around the axis, this will force the motion of the motor. It would use less electricity to make the motors with NeoDym magnets but it would also cost more to produce.As a conclusion: We can not make an electrical washing machine that operate without magnetic fields, but magnetic fields does not have to be made by magnets.


Is a crowbar a compound machine?

No. It is made of one solid piece, therefore not a compound. The metal of which it constructed may be a compound however.
