Product Description

AISI 1050 Carbon Steel
1050 steel is a medium carbon steel alloy with approximately 0.50% carbon content. It falls within the classification of plain carbon steels and is known for its excellent balance of strength, hardness, and wear resistance. This steel grade is widely used in various industrial applications due to its versatility and cost-effectiveness.

Chemical Composition:
Carbon (C): 0.48 - 0.55%
Manganese (Mn): 0.60 - 0.90%
Phosphorus (P): Maximum 0.040%
Sulfur (S): Maximum 0.050%

Mechanical Properties:
·Tensile Strength: 580 - 700 MPa
·Yield Strength (0.2% offset): 350 - 500 MPa
·Elongation at Break: 10 - 15%
·Hardness (Brinell): 150 - 210 HB

Physical Properties:
·Density: 7.87 g/cm³
·Thermal Conductivity: 49.8 W/m·K (at 100°C)
·Specific Heat Capacity: 0.486 J/g·K
·Thermal Expansion: 11.5 µm/m·K (20-100°C)

Heat Treatment:
1050 steel can undergo various heat treatment processes to achieve desired mechanical properties. Annealing improves machinability and ductility, while quenching and tempering enhance hardness and toughness. Other heat treatment methods include normalizing, stress relieving, and case hardening.

Applications:
·Machinery parts: Gears, shafts, crankshafts, and axles.
·Forgings: 1050 steel is commonly used in the production of forgings due to its good machinability and weldability.
·Hand tools: Chisels, punches, and hammers.
·Springs: Coil and flat springs where moderate strength and toughness are required.
·Automotive components: Bushings, bearings, and transmission components.

Surface Treatment:
Surface treatments such as polishing, grinding, shot blasting, and plating can be applied to improve the surface finish, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance of components made from 1050 steel.

Quality Assurance:
Manufacturers ensure the quality of 1050 steel through stringent quality control measures, including chemical analysis, mechanical testing, dimensional inspection, and surface finish evaluation. Compliance with industry standards and specifications is essential to meet customer requirements.

Environmental Considerations:
1050 steel is recyclable and can be reused to produce new steel products. Recycling reduces the demand for raw materials and energy consumption associated with steel production, making it an environmentally sustainable material choice.
