Carbon steel is a type of steel that is primarily composed of carbon and iron. It typically contains small amounts of other elements such as manganese, silicon, and copper. The carbon content in carbon steel can range from 0.05% to 2.0%, with higher carbon content resulting in increased hardness and strength.
Carbon steel is commonly used in a variety of applications, including construction, automotive manufacturing, and industrial equipment. It is often chosen for its strength, durability, and affordability.
There are several different grades and types of carbon steel available at Omsteel, each with its own specific properties and characteristics.
Some common types of carbon steel include
Low carbon steel
Medium carbon steel
High carbon steel
Properties of Carbon Stainless steel
High strength
Ductility
Hardness
Weldability

FAQ
Carbon steel is commonly used in a wide range of applications due to its versatility, affordability, and durability. It is often used in the manufacturing of construction materials such as beams, pipes, and plates, as well as in the production of automobiles, appliances, and machinery. Additionally, carbon steel is frequently used in the oil and gas industry for the manufacturing of pipelines and drilling equipment. It is also commonly used in the manufacturing of tools such as knives and saw blades.
There are three main types of carbon steel: low carbon steel, medium carbon steel, and high carbon steel. The difference between them lies in their carbon content and their properties, such as hardness and ductility.
The strength of carbon steel varies depending on its composition and heat treatment, but it is generally considered to be a strong and durable material. High carbon steel can have a tensile strength of up to 1500 MPa, while low carbon steel typically has a tensile strength of 400-550 MPa.
Carbon steel is generally less expensive cost of carbon steel is approximately Rs. 80*/Kg , Black C 35 Steel Blocks are available for purchase at a cost of Rs. 125/Kg. Additionally, 070m55 Carbon Steel is also available for industrial use, at a price of Rs. 85 per kilogram for 3 meters. Contact us to Know more.
