the Use of metal products in the format of alloys and many grades of steel in various fields of manufacturing, construction and commercial activities so necessary that indicators of metallurgical industry are used to assess the level of industrialization of the state. And if until recently the demand for iron increased annually, at the present time he gives the leading position to demand for high-quality carbon steel, including steel GOST 1050 is considered the most popular (in demand).
Composition and main technical parameters
the Decrease in the content (mean percentage) of carbon is a key parameter for translation of the final investment casting products from cast iron category to category steel. The main part of high-quality carbon steel the current GOST 1050:
- Carbon up to 0.06%.
- Silicon - no more than 0,03%.
- Manganese - no more than 0.4%.
- Chrome not more than 0.1%.
It allows you to manufacture long products, with its plasticity (perfectly technology cold forming), good weldability (does not require pre-heating of the workpiece), resistance to corrosion (higher than cast iron, but inferior to stainless steel), high strength. Billets of steel of the brand is quite easy for processing-cutting tools on machines, and manual format.
Main benefits of quality carbon steel
the Low selling price of steel GOST 1050 made her quite popular among manufacturers. Made out of components withstand significant temperature drops (from -45 to 500 °C degrees), lend themselves to this method, additional hardening as hardening (detail obtained with a rigid surface and the elastic core). It is supplied metallurgical enterprises in the leaves, in the format of long products, billets, and heats. More detailed information on the supply available on the official website of the manufacturer.
