What is the difference in carbon content of low carbon steel, medium carbon steel and high carbon steel?
The carbon content of medium carbon steel (AISI1029 to 1053) is 0.25% to 0.55%, manganese content is 0.30% to 1%, phosphorus content is not more than 0.04%, sulfur content is not more than 0.05%.
The carbon content of high carbon steel (AISI1055 ~ 1095) is 0.60% to 1.03%, manganese content is 0.30% to 0.90%, phosphorus content is not more than 0.04%, sulfur content is not more than 0.05%.
Carbon content of low carbon steel (AISI1005 ~ 1026) is 0.06% to 0.28%, manganese content is 0.25% to 1%, phosphorus content is not more than 0.04%, sulfur content is not more than 0.05%.
