------------------------------------------------- Alloy Steel is a metal alloy whose major component is iron‚ with carbon content between 0.02% and 2.14% by mass. An alloy is a metallic solid solution composed of two or more elements. Complete solid solution alloys give single solid phase microstructure‚ while partial solutions give two or more phases that may or may not be homogeneous in distribution‚ depending on thermal (heat treatment) history. Alloys usually have different properties from those

Steel and heat treatment MILD STEEL Mild steel is also called plain carbon steel. It is the most common type of steel and it price is pretty low. Its composition is around about 0.05%-0.29% carbon content. Mild steel has a relatively low tensile strength but the surface can be hardened through carburizing. It is mostly used where large amounts of steel needs to be formed eg structural steel MEDIUM CARBON STEEL Medium carbon steel has great wear resistance and is used for forged automotive
