Application of Carbon Steel

Application of Carbon Steel
Points : Application of Carbon Steel, Low-Carbon Steel, Medium Carbon Steel, High Carbon Steel i) Low-Carbon Steel Low carbon steel, also mild steel. It is generally used for common industrial products, such as bolts, nuts, sheet, plate, tubes, and machine components that do not require high strength. ii) Medium Carbon Steel It is generally used in applications requiring high strength than low-carbon steels, such as machinery, automotive and agricultural equipment parts (gears, axles, connecting rods, crankshafts), railroad equipment, and parts for metal working machinery. iii) High Carbon Steel It is generally used for part requiring strength, hardness, and wear resistance, such as cutting tools, cable, music wire, springs, and cutlery, After being manufactured into shapes, the parts are usually heat treated and tempered. The higher the carbon content of the steel, the higher is its hardness, strength, and wear resistance after heat treatment.
