Carbon steel is a type of steel primarily composed of iron and carbon, with minimal or no presence of alloying elements such as chromium, nickel, or molybdenum. Known for its strength and high-pressure resistance, carbon steel is widely used across industrial sectors.
It is a fundamental material in construction and manufacturing—ideal for producing structural frames, pipelines, machinery parts, and heavy equipment.
Types of Carbon Steel
Low Carbon Steel
Carbon content: < 0.3%
Ductile and easy to weld. Commonly used for plates, light pipes, and automotive components.
Medium Carbon Steel
Carbon content: 0.3% – 0.6%
Stronger and wear-resistant. Often used in gears, shafts, and railway components.
High Carbon Steel
Carbon content: > 0.6%
Extremely hard and durable. Suitable for cutting tools, drills, and spring steel.
