Carbon Steel Plate

Carbon steel is an iron carbon alloy with carbon content ranging from 0.0218% to 2.11%. Also called carbon steel. Generally also contains a small amount of silicon, manganese, sulfur, phosphorus. The higher the carbon content in the general carbon steel, the greater the hardness, the higher the strength, but the lower the plasticity. Low carbon steel (C:≤0.25%), also known as mild steel, low carbon steel is easy to accept a variety of processing such as forging, welding and cutting. Medium carbon steel (0.25% < C≤0.6%), there are killed steel, semi-killed steel, boiling steel and other products. High carbon steel (C: > 0.6%), often used as a tool steel, with carbon content from more than 0.60 to 1.70%, can be hardened and tempered.
