…The iron golem is a massive, towering giant wrought of heavy metal. An iron golem's shape can be… any form, though most… look like giant suits of armor. Its fist can destroy creatures with a single blow, …wield enormous blades…, and all can belch clouds of deadly poison. …Iron golems were designed to be nearly invulnerable… susceptible only to weapons imbued with magic or the strength of adamantine.

 3.5e lore 

This golem has a humanoid body made from iron. An iron golem can be fashioned in any manner, just like a stone golem (see below), although it almost always displays armor of some sort. Its features are much smoother than those of a stone golem. Iron golems sometimes carry a short sword in one hand. An iron golem is 12 feet tall and weighs about 5,000 pounds. An iron golem cannot speak or make any vocal noise, nor does it have any distinguishable odor. It moves with a ponderous but smooth gait. Each step causes the floor to tremble unless it is on a thick, solid foundation.
