Fairly sure hip replacements use lighter metals than medieval-ass IRON 😂

HikingVet,

Yep, usually titanium. Also because Iron would corrode in the body.

SkybreakerEngineer,

Titanium ideally. Weight is a consideration, but mostly that you body won’t attack it like it would iron alloys and it fuses to bone really well.
