Carbon Steel

Carbon steel is the most common metal used today. Carbon steels are a series of alloys of steel with carbon content from about 0.05 up to 2.1 percent by weight. There are many types of alloy steels within this group and properties can vary based upon the level of carbon and the addition of other elements. Carbon steel is one of the most important commodities that is used in modern society and is found all around us in everyday life. Carbon steel is used in many applications including construction, fabrication, pipelines, cutting blades, tools, automotive components and many more. Carbon and alloy steel grades include A36, A572, A588, A709, A656, A830, 1045, AR400, AR 450, AR500, A514, A829, 4130, 4140, A516, A537, A283, A285 and more.
