Smooth; element (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

iron

I believe this is a double definition.

'smooth' is the first definition.
(to smooth down with an iron)

'element' is the second definition.
(I know that iron is a type of metal)

(Other definitions for iron that I've seen before include "inflexible > club" , "Smoother - metal" , "Smooth things" , "Metal (that may be wrought)" , "A magnet attracts it" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
