Carbon steel is  composed of mainly steel and carbon along with iron and other elements. The carbon content is often as high as 2.5%, therefore it’s chosen for applications that require durability and a strong material. Some of the attractive benefits are :

  • Added strength
  • Increased carburized ability
  • Well suited to automatic lathes
  • Lower cost metal
  • 100% recyclable
