Carbon steel plate is among the most versatile options you have. The range of its uses is primarily dictated by the classification of the plates, which could mean it’s either low carbon content or high carbon content. The uses of carbon steel are common in manufacturing, construction, and even the building of durable storage containers. 

Carbon steel, as you can tell by its name, has a higher content of carbon compared to other types of steel, which have a significantly lower content of carbon – often between 0.05% to 0.3% only. Compared to that, carbon steel has up to 2.5% of carbon content.

Product Introduction

Different Types of Carbon Steel Plates

Carbon steel plates contain up to 2% of their total alloying elements and can be divided into either low carbon steels, medium carbon steels, high carbon steels, and ultrahigh carbon steels.

Low Carbon Steels

Low carbon steels contain up to 0.30 percent carbon. The largest category for low carbon steel includes carbon steel sheets, which are flat-rolled products. These are typically used in automobile body parts, truck beds, tin plates, and wire products.

Medium Carbon Steels

Medium carbon steels (mild steel) have carbon ranges from 0.30 to 0.60 percent. Steel plates are used primarily in gears, axles, shafts, and forging. Medium carbon steels that are 0.40 percent to 0.60 percent carbon are used as a material for railways.

High Carbon Steels

High carbon steels contain 0.60 to 1.00 percent carbon. The usage of carbon steel sheets can be used for construction equipment like strong wiring, spring material, and cutting.

Ultrahigh Carbon Steels

Ultrahigh carbon steels are experimental alloys that contain 1.25 to 2.0 percent carbon. Carbon steel sheets are commonly seen being used in knives and the construction industry.

Advantage

• The raw material of carbon steel is easy to find, so it is usually low in production cost.

• It has a robust construction, high ductility, easy fabricating, good abrasion resistance, and great versatility.

Quality Control

We have our own Physical & Chemical Testing Center Lab to guarantee our product quality. Our test items & instrument fully meet international standards.

Applications

The carbon steel plate is commonly used in machinery, chemical, petroleum, boiler, heat exchanger, medical equipment, and other industries. 

• Making building materials like carbon steel angle/coil/strip, mold bottoms, scaffoldings, machinery parts, I-beam, etc.

• Construct bridges, highways, buildings, ships, offshore structures, power stations, storage tanks, boilers, pressure vessels, etc.

• General fabrication like cabinets, enclosures, bucket parts, truck bodies, heat exchangers, condensers, steel repairing, etc.

• Used as the base material of GI, and PPGI steel.
