The Best CNC Machined Components Made from Carbon Steel
Carbon Steel comprises carbon, steel, nickel, copper, manganese, and other elements. Carbon steel is a material manufactured from a range of alloys with varying levels of carbon.
The Range of alloys is divided into three classifications:
1: Low Carbon Steel
Low carbon steel is also called mild carbon steel. Low carbon steel can run up to 0.04-0.3% carbon, resulting in very flexible, easy to cut, and easy to shape.
2: Medium Carbon Steel
Medium Carbon steel Roughly contains 0.26-0.6% Carbon, resulting in powerful steel which keeps it immune to welding and cutting.
3: High Carbon Steel
High Carbon Steel consists of 1.5%, resulting in very had and breakable alloys used to make inflexible components.
Carbon steel is often used for gears, shafts, rails, axles, pipelines, couplings, and more. It is commonly used in machining parts for various applications, including military, aircraft, aerospace, and Oil & gas industries.
Following are the Components machined with carbon steel, Including:
• Adapters
• Hydraulic shafts
• Motor Shafts
• Pinions
• Axle Shafts
• Sprockets
• Torsion Bars
• And much more
