Carbon steel is widely used for lots of general applications. We supply DIN C45 (SAE 1045, JIS S45C), C20 (SAE 1020, JIS S20C).
SAE 1045 (C45 / S45C)
C45 Round Bar is a basic medium carbon steel with no additional alloys. It’s a common engineering steel that offers moderate strength, good machinability, and strong tensile properties. Usually, C45 steel comes in a black hot rolled form, but sometimes it’s also available in a normalized state.
SAE 1020 (C20 / S20C)
SAE 1020 steel is a type of “mild” steel with a low carbon content, less than 0.3%. Besides carbon, it also includes elements like manganese, sulfur, and phosphorus, making it suitable for everyday uses.
