Carbon Steel Properties

Carbon steel is a steel with carbon content up to 2.1% by weight.

Carbon steel is broken down into four classes based on carbon content:

Low-carbon steel
0.05 to 0.30% carbon content..

Medium-carbon steel
Approximately 0.3–0.8% carbon content. Balances ductility and strength and has good wear resistance; used for large parts, forging and automotive components.

High-carbon steel
Approximately 0.8–2.0% carbon content. Very strong, used for springs, edged tools, and high-strength wires.

Ultra-high-carbon steel
Approximately 3.25–4.0% carbon content. Steels that can be tempered to great hardness. Used for special purposes like (non-industrial-purpose) knives, axles or punches. Most steels with more than 2.5% carbon content are made using powder metallurgy.

Forging temperature of steel
Steel Type Maximum forging temperature (°F / °C) Burning temperature (°F / °C)
1.5% carbon 1920 / 1049 2080 / 1140
1.1% carbon 1980 / 1082 2140 / 1171
0.9% carbon 2050 / 1121 2230 / 1221

FASTWELL’s Carbon steel is a steel with carbon content not more than 2.1% by weight. steels with a higher carbon content are hard and brittle, while steels with a lower carbon content are ductile and tough. American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) states that carbon steel is one with no minimum content specified or required for chromium, cobalt, molybdenum, nickel, niobium, titanium, tungsten, vanadium or zirconium, or any other element to be added to obtain a desired alloying effect. The specified minimum amount for copper does not exceed 0.40 %. For the maximum content specified for any of the following elements does not exceed the percentages are manganese 1.65, silicon 0.60, copper 0.60.
Let’s compare the primary features of these two types of steel present with us-

  • High Carbon Steel
    • Vulnerable to rust
    • Brittle
    • Wear-resistant
  • Stainless Steel
    • Resistant to rust
    • Less brittle
    • Less wear-resistant
Based on the carbon percentage the carbon steel further classified into four groups they are
  • Dead mild steel
  • Low carbon steel
  • Medium Carbon Steel
  • High carbon steel
