Mild Steel Castings
Mild Steel Castings
Mild steel is also known as low carbon steel, whose carbon content is between 0.10% to 0.30%. Because of its low carbon content, its sensible strength and hardness are lower and so called as Mild Steel. Mild steel castings have good properties for various machining, forging and welding processes, so it is wildly used for engineering fields...
.. such as shipbuilding industries also used as structural steel, signs, automobiles, furniture, fencing, and much more. Mild steel is extensively recycled and can be efficiently melted down and reused (Recyclable). Mild steel is easy to weld with all methods of welding processes (Weldable). Mild steel can be easily stretched and formed, making it perfect for deep-drawing processes (Ductile).
Mild steel castings are components made from low-carbon steel, typically containing 0.10% to 0.30% carbon. This lower carbon content makes mild steel more ductile and easier to machine, but it also means it has lower strength and hardness compared to high-carbon steels.
Mild steel castings are widely used in construction, automotive, and industrial machinery due to their affordability, weldability, and versatility. They can be produced using various casting methods, including sand casting, investment casting, and die casting.
