HC Steel means High Carbon Steel in which carbon content is 10% - 12 % depending on Application
Yes its an alloy ! Because steel itself is an alloy of IRON and CARBON and based on the content of carbon it is classified as mild steel , low carbon steel etc;
carbon content. Stainless has a higher content. Also, high speed steel refers to material drill bits are made of. Its a slightly altered mild steel.
Iron. All alloy material is present in concentrations less that 5%
steel. Steel is made up mainly of Iron with a low content (0.2 to 2%) of carbon depending on the grade of steel.
The amount of carbon in iron metal determines the strength and type of steel.Steel with low carbon is called low carbon steel and carbon with medium carbon called medium carbon steel. It is called low carbon steel if the carbon content is around 2.5 % or less. Others may be called medium or high carbon steel like that used in Die Steel of cutting tools. Generally low carbon steel are preferred if welding is adopted.
* Mild (low carbon) steel: approximately 0.05-0.15% carbon content for low carbon steel and 0.16-0.29% carbon content for mild steel (e.g. AISI 1018 steel). Mild steel has a relatively low tensile strength, but it is cheap and malleable; surface hardness can be increased through carburizing. * Medium carbon steel: approximately 0.30-0.59% carbon content(e.g. AISI 1040 steel). Balances ductility and strength and has good wear resistance; used for large parts, forging and automotive components. * High carbon steel: approximately 0.6-0.99% carbon content. Very strong, used for springs and high-strength wires. * Ultra-high carbon steel: approximately 1.0-2.0% carbon content. Steels that can be tempered to great hardness. Used for special purposes like (non-industrial-purpose) knives, axles or punches. Most steels with more than 1.2% carbon content are made using powder metallurgy and usually fall in the category of high alloy carbon steels.
There are 4 they are Low Carbon steel, Medium Carbon Steel, High Carbon Steel and Eutectiod
HC Steel means High Carbon Steel in which carbon content is 10% - 12 % depending on Application
Carbon content in dead mild steel is betweet 0.05% & 0.15% .
En8 is low carbon steel and it can be toughned. En24 is medium carbon steel and it is generally called forged steel.
Heat increases the potential energy and temperature of steel.
8.8-a2a grade steel = 6.800000000000001
The stainless steel grades includes carbon steel, manganese steel, nickel steel, nickel-chromium steel, and molybdenum steel. The content of carbon in the different steel grades varies.
High carbon steel is a metal.The addition of carbon makes the steel harder after heat treatment.
Low carbon steel has about 0.05% to 0.25% carbon content that is combined with iron. When compared with steel with higher carbon content, its properties are that it is relatively softer, less strong, more malleable, easy to shape, and has a higher melting point. Generally speaking the strength and hardness of steel increases with the percentage of carbon in the alloy.
