Carbon steel is an alloy with carbon and iron, with carbon content up to 2.1% by weight. The increase in the carbon percentage will raise steel’s hardness and strength, but it will be less ductile. Carbon steel has good properties in hardness and strength, and it is less expensive than other steels.
Application
Carbon steel bar is a kind of general-purpose steel bar that offers excellent formability and weldability, being used in a wide variety of applications including auto manufacturing, shipbuilding, aerospace industry, petrochemical plants, auto-power and wind-engine, metallurgical machinery, precision tools, etc.
