Characteristics
Carbon steel types include low, medium and high carbon content steels whose chemical composition is defined in broad ranges. Low-carbon steel has 0.30% or less carbon; medium-carbon steel has 0.30%-0.60%, and high-carbon steel has 0.60%-1.00% carbon content.
Applications
Large section shafts that do not suffer from high stresses. Other applications: hardened pins and chains and automotive wheel rims, and cathode and anode bars.
