Title
Steel, High Carbon
Description
High carbon steels (0.5-1.7% carbon) harden when quenched - a quality that gives great control over properties. High carbon steels achieve hardness sufficient for them to be used as cutting tools, chisels and cables, and "piano wire" - the metal strings of pianos and violins.
General Applications: Cutting tools; high performance bearings, cranks and shafts, springs, knives and scissors, rail.
