The cost of the bath depends only on the quality of the material from which it is made. The cheapest is steel. Such bathtubs are made by extruding a sheet of rolled metal two millimeters thick; foreign manufacturers produce bathtubs with a thickness of 3.2 millimeters, which makes them more durable. The main disadvantage of a steel bath is its heat transfer characteristics; it heats up very quickly, but also cools quickly. Therefore, soak in hot water for a long time will not work. And also, when struck, such bathtubs easily spoil the enamel, this leads to exposure of the metal and its further corrosion.
