Carbon Steel Materials

Carbon steel is defined as steel with 0.05–2.0% carbon content by weight, making it the most widely used category of industrial steel—accounting for approximately 85% of global steel production. Carbon steels span from low-carbon mild steels (A36, S275) for general construction through medium-carbon grades (1045, 4140) for shafts and gears to high-carbon tool steels for cutting applications. Key selection factors include weldability (CEV), strength grade, and low-temperature toughness.
