The difference between ferrous metals and non-ferrous metals is that non-ferrous metals do not contain iron. It can be easy to know the difference, but it is not easy to tell when a person is looking at a random piece of metal to tell the difference.
Non-Ferrous metals are not magnetic and are usually more resistant to corrosion that ferrous metals. A few examples of Non-Ferrous metals are aluminum, aluminum alloys, titanium and copper.
Non-Ferrous metals are mainly used for structural applications that require reduced weight, higher strength, nonmagnetic properties, and higher melting point. Non-Ferrous metals are also used for electrical and electronic applications.
