4140 1045 Carbon Steel Bar 10mm 12mm Rod Stainless Steel Round Bar Deformed Steel Bar

A carbon steel round bar is a cylindrical metallic product primarily composed of iron and carbon, with carbon content ranging from 0.05% to 2.1% by weight. These bars contain minimal alloying elements, making them cost-effective for applications prioritizing mechanical strength and formability. The uniform cylindrical shape is ideal for load-bearing components requiring rotational symmetry, with diameters typically from 6mm to 500mm.

• Composition: Carbon (0.05-0.25%), manganese (0.3-0.9%).
• Properties: Excellent formability, high ductility, and welding ease.
• Applications: Shafts, gears, construction reinforcement, and automotive chassis.

• Composition: Carbon (0.25-0.60%), higher manganese for hardenability.
• Properties: Responsive to quenching and tempering (up to HRC 50).
• Applications: Crankshafts, axles, connecting rods, and industrial gears.

• Composition: Carbon (0.60-1.5%), often with chromium/vanadium.
• Properties: Extremely high hardness (HRC 55-65) and wear resistance.
• Applications: Cutting tools, knives, drills, springs, and saw blades.

Carbon structural steel is widely divided into grades like Q195, Q215, Q235, Q255, and Q275 based on yield strength. For industrial tool applications, carbon content typically ranges from 0.65% to 1.35%, providing the high hardness required for molds and measuring tools.
