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.
There are thousands grades of low carbon steel in the world. The properties (tensile strength) depends of a lot of parameters such as product type, heat treatment, micro-alloying, dimensions of products, etc. Max possible tensile strength for low carbon steel is 1200 - 1400 MPa.
EN8 is an unalloyed medium carbon steel with good tensile strength. It is normally supplied in cold drawn or as rolled. Tensile properties can vary but are usually between 500-800 N/mm2
ASTM A216 'Steel Castings, Carbon, Suitable for Fusion Welding, for High- Temperature Service' covers three different grades WCA, WCB, WCC with different tensile strength from 415 to 655 MPa
Carbon is primary hardening element in steel. Hardness and tensile strength increases as carbon content increases upto 0.85%. Ductility and weldability decreases as carbon content increases. If the solution of carbon and liquid iron is solidified slowly the carbon tends to separate out in the form of graphite flakes (Grey cast iron). It is easily machinable. If the same iron is cast and colled quickly, it is hard and has a higher tensile strength, is difficult to machine (white cast iron).
SA.283 - Rolled Steel Plates, Shapes, Sheet Piling, and BarsLow and intermidiat tensile strength carbon steel plates.
WCB stands for "Wrought Carbon" with Grade B. There are 3 kinds of Grade; A,B & C which define the ductility & tensile strength. Grade B has very good ductility & tensile strength as compare to Grade A & C. The combination of carbon and stainless steel.

Stainless steel contains chromium which makes it resistant to corrosion, while carbon steel does not have this added element and is more susceptible to rust. Stainless steel is typically more durable and has a higher tensile strength compared to carbon steel, which is less likely to deform under stress. Additionally, stainless steel is commonly used in applications where hygiene and cleanliness are priorities due to its non-reactive nature.
if its standard wrought carbon steel, the psi should be just about in the 100,000psi range. The last two digits of the designation, 75, are the carbon content. 0.75%. the higher the carbon content, the higher the tensile strength. The ultimate tensile strength of a steel such as AISI 1075 varies depending upon the heat treated condition and hardness. The tensile strength of a steel can be approximated from the hardness using hardness conversion tables found elsewhere on the web.
Higher the carbon the steel will have higher TS up to certain point.

Carbon Nano Tubes, Graphene.
Carbon in the form of diamond is an exception among non-metals with high tensile strength. Diamond has exceptionally high tensile strength due to its unique atomic structure, which forms strong covalent bonds that make it harder than any other material.
The carbon content in stainless steel affects its hardness, strength, and corrosion resistance. Higher carbon content can increase hardness and strength but may reduce corrosion resistance. Lower carbon content can improve corrosion resistance but may decrease hardness and strength. Balancing carbon content is crucial in determining the overall properties of stainless steel.
Steel (iron and carbon) is a useful compound. Small variations in the amount of carbon can make compounds that have great resiliency (springs) great hardness (knives) great tensile strength (wire) etc.Alloys with nickel and chrome are resistant to corrosion (stainless)
A stretching force is basically tensile strength. It is measured in pascals or equivalently newtons per square meter. For example, carbon nanotubes have a stretching force or tensile strength of 63 GPa.
