Carbon steels are group of steel grades which have 0,22 % - 0,75 % of carbon. Products made of these steel grades are formed out of soft or spheroidisation annealed material. After proper heat treatment, that is quenching and tempering, these products get high strength and hardness accompanied with good toughness and elongation. Due to these properties, such products are convenient for static and dynamic loading.
These steels have also good wear resistance.
These steels have also good wear resistance.
Spring steels must have one additional property - in spite of considerable twisting or bending, after removal of the load the products must have their original form.
These steels are divided into two groups:
- non-alloyed
- alloyed, where silicon, manganese, vanadium chromium and molybdenum are added as alloying elements
By application these steels are divided into:
- steels for quenching and tempering
- spring steels
- case hardening steels
These steels are used for various sorts of springs, shafts, axles, knives, cutters, washers, shears …
