Write down the composition and application of carbon steel

Answer»

CARBON steel is an alloy consisting of iron and carbon. Several other elements are allowed in carbon steel, with low maximum percentages. These elements are manganese, with a 1.65% maximum, SILICON, with a 0.60% maximum, and copper, with a 0.60% maximum. Other elements may be present in quantities too small to affect its properties.the hardness

of plain carbon steel INCREASES progressively with increase in carbon CONTENT, so that generally the low-and medium carbon steel are used for constructional work, WHILST the high carbon steels are used for the manufacture of tools and other components where hardness and wear-resistance are necessary.
