Features and Uses of Low Carbon Steel
A general purpose 'engineering' steel ideally suited for those situations
where tough, ductile, easy to machine steel is required but where the properties
conferred by the use of tools steels or heat treatment are not required.
Typical applications include die plates, fixtures, jigs, machine parts,
patterns, punch pads, stripper plates and templates.
Available Forms
Heat Treatment
If desired, Low Carbon can be either carburised or case hardened using
standard heat treatments. When applied to this grade, both processes produce
satisfactory surface hardening results.
