WCB, 1030, 1035, 1045, 1050 | Medium Carbon Steels | Shafts and Gearings, Railways applications, Applications that would benefit from Increased ductility. |
1060, 1090, 1095 | High Carbon Steels | Applications that require extreme hardness and resistance to wear. |
Typical Carbon Alloy Characteristics
Carbon steel is one of the most popularly cast alloys for a reason due to its incredible structural integrity.
Other benefits include:
- Excellent cost effectiveness
- Ferromagnetic properties
- Ability to be hardened and strengthened
- Versatility of their uses from hardwearing applications to those requiring a more ductile steel. Uses range from nails and clips to bridges and reinforcement
