Difference between cast iron and mild steel?
The main difference between cast iron and mild steel is the carbon content. Mild steel has a lower carbon content than cast iron. This makes cast iron brittle, while mild steel is much harder.
Does mild steel have iron in it?
steel is the alloy of iron and carbon , so mild steel is an ferrous alloy
What is the difference between ms and cs steel?
MS stands for mild steel. This is steel than only has a small about of carbon. It's strong, but not easily tempered. CS stands for carbon steel. In carbon steel, the main alloying element is carbon.
What is the main constituent metal in mild steel?
The main element of steel is Iron but has been added with carbon to make steel. The main element of steel is Iron but has been added with carbon to make steel.
What is the difference between MS pipe and GI pipe?
there is difference in material ms is mild steel and gi is galvanised iron, hence the properties will be different
The properties difference between mild-steel and cast-iron?
Cast iron is more brittle then mild steel

What is the difference between GI sheet galvanized mild steel sheet?
The difference between the GI sheet galvanized and mild sheet steel is the gauged used. The other difference is the materials used and the galvanization aspect.
What is difference between MS pipe and GI pipe?

What the difference between mild steel and HYSD bars?
Mild steel is of a general steel grade. HYSD stands for high yield strength deformed steel, which is of a 40 percent stronger steel grade.
When joining mild steel pipe with stainless steel pipes any dilectric isolation is required?
No, they are both iron based, you only need it between iron and copper.
Are fire extinguishers made of mild steel?
Yes, Fire Extinguisher body made of mild steel iron
Difference in microstructure of mild steel when etched and unetched?
Etched mild steel --> you will be able to to see its microstructure under optical microscope Unetched mild steel --> you will not be able to see its microstructure under optical microscope. The microstructure between etched mild steel and unetched mild steel does not change. Etching only to make the microstructure visible.
