About Carbon steel

Carbon Steel is a highly versatile and durable material widely used across various industries, including construction, automotive, shipbuilding, machinery, and tool manufacturing. Composed primarily of iron with carbon content less than 2%, this material offers exceptional strength, malleability, and structural integrity. Available in different gradeslow, medium, and high carbon steelit is customizable into forms such as sheets, bars, rods, plates, and pipes to suit specific applications. A solid, metallic gray material that is odorless and insoluble in water, Carbon Steel has a neutral pH level and a density of 7.85 g/cm. Despite its strong properties, it is prone to corrosion when exposed to moisture, requiring proper storage in a dry environment. With a melting point ranging from 1425C to 1540C and indefinite shelf life when stored appropriately, Carbon Steel remains a reliable and enduring choice for demanding structural and manufacturing needs.
