Carbon Steel Casting Series 4

Carbon steel is a common casting material that can be used to make various accessories, such as bridges, ships, building components, machine parts, etc.

The higher the carbon content in carbon steel, the greater the hardness and strength, but the lower the plasticity.

Carbon steel can be divided into three categories according to its use: carbon structural steel, carbon tool steel and free-cutting structural steel; according to the smelting method, it can be divided into open-hearth steel and converter steel; according to the deoxidation method, it can be divided into boiling steel, killed steel, semi-killed steel and special killed steel; according to the carbon content, it can be divided into low carbon steel, medium carbon steel and high carbon steel; according to the quality of steel, it can be divided into ordinary carbon steel, high-quality carbon steel, high-quality steel and special high-quality steel. The main components of carbon steel are six elements: iron, carbon, silicon, manganese, sulfur and phosphorus.

Different types of carbon steel can be used to make different products, so it is deeply loved by more industries and is a widely used casting material.
