It is carbon(0.1 to 1.7%) and somewhat manganese,chromium, nickel,phasphorus ,sulphur in which makes the steel strong.By varying these quantities properties of steel can be changed.

The fatigue strength of mild steel is?
The fatigue strength of mild steel refers to the certain conditions whereby the mild steel suffers fatigue failure.
What is yield strength and tensile strength of 20c8 cast steel?
YIELD STRENGTH 242 N/sqmm TENSILE STRENGTH 440~520 N/sqmm
What is the tensile strength of 304 stainless compared to carbon steel?
304 strength ranges from 80,000 psi to 250,000 psi, depending on degree of cold work. Standard carbon steel strength is less than 80,000 psi.
What is mean by IFHS 440 Material grade?
Type of steel its cold rolled interstitial free high strength steel. Used for critical component of which strength also one of the concern.
How hard is it to cut mild steel?
i think that it is quite difficult to cut mild steel because of its stiffness/strength
What metallic element is added to steel to increase its strength?
Molybdenum
Steel is formed whena little bit of carbon is added to this element.the carbon gives strength and hardness to steel?
IRON
What happens to the yield strength of steel when carbon is added?
It will be lowered with the result that the steel becomes more brittle.
What metallic element is added to steel to make it stronger?
Steel is an alloy, and it is made from the elements ironand carbon. Other elements and combinations of elements can be added to the steel to change its properties to fit different applications, including :Chromium - improves durability and prevents rust (stainless steel).Nickel - increases durability and resistance to heat and acids.Manganese - increases strength and resistance to wear.Molybdenum - increases strength and resistance to heat.Tungsten - retains hardness at high temperatures.Vanadium - increases strength and springiness.
Are iron and steel the same?
No. Iron is a pure metallic element. Steel an alloy of iron iron with something else added, usually carbon, to give it more strength.
ASTM A 487 is it carbon steel?
A 487 is a high strength low alloy steel. there is nothing such as a carbon steel .iron becomes steel only when carbon is added to it.steel itself is an alloy of iron and carbon.hence the term carbon steel is wrong it is just steel.
When was Strength of Steel created?
Strength of Steel was created on 1987-05-21.
What temperature does steel lose strength?
At about 550° C (1,000° F) Steel is at 50% Strength and at about 800° C (1472° F) structural steel loses 90% of its strength
What do scientist add to steel to prevent rust?
Steel is an iron alloy. When the alloy contains chromium and phosphorous it doesnot rust. Other metals may be added for improved strength and heat resistance.
What does steel symbolize in literature?
Steel symbolizes strength
What are the materials added in electrical overhead lines?
Overhead electrical lines are usually made of aluminum, and some have a steel strand added which is used to give the conductor more strength (not to carry current).
Why does your laptop have steel in it?
for it strength
