Pathan Durgadevi Udyan, Ground Floor, 25 Plot No 74/80, Patra Chawl, Maruti , Mandir Marg, Second Street, Girgaon, Mumbai, Maharashtra 400004Due to its excellent ‘Strength’, ‘Durability’ and ‘Cost-Effectiveness’ Carbon Steel is one of the most popularly used piping and tubing and material. Typically, it is an alloy that consists of iron and carbon.
Hence, we at Tubotech a leading piping and tubing manufacturer in India offer you high-performing Carbon Steel fasteners and fittings. They have been engineered with ‘Precision’ to meet international standards.
Above all, our primary objective at Tubotech, a top piping and tubing manufacturer in India, is to provide you with fastening and fittings solutions that symbolizes ‘Quality’ to remember.
Carbon Steel comprises a number of specifications that you need to understand. They are given below in the table:
| Grade | Carbon Content (%) | Tensile Strength (MPa) | Yield Strength (MPa) | Hardness (HB) | Common Applications |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Low Carbon Steel (e.g., A36, 1010, 1020) | 0.05 – 0.25 | 400 – 550 | 250 – 350 | 119 – 163 | Structural components, fasteners, pipes, automotive parts |
| Medium Carbon Steel (e.g., 1045, 1050) | 0.30 – 0.60 | 550 – 700 | 300 – 500 | 170 – 229 | Shafts, axles, gears, bolts, forged parts |
| High Carbon Steel (e.g., 1080, 1095) | 0.60 – 1.00 | 700 – 900+ | 500 – 800 | 200 – 300+ | Springs, cutting tools, high-strength fasteners |
| Alloy Carbon Steel (e.g., ASTM A193 B7) | 0.30 – 0.50 | 860 – 1040 | 720 – 860 | 200 – 248 | High-pressure applications, flange bolts, petrochemical use |
It is depending on the type of Carbon Steel that the percentage of chemical content will vary. They are all given in the table below:
| Type | Carbon (C) | Manganese (Mn) | Phosphorus (P) | Sulfur (S) | Iron (Fe) | Other Elements |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Low Carbon Steel | 0.05% – 0.25% | 0.30% – 0.90% | ≤ 0.04% | ≤ 0.05% | Balance | Trace Si, Cu |
Medium Carbon Steel | 0.30% – 0.60% | 0.60% – 1.65% | ≤ 0.04% | ≤ 0.05% | Balance | Trace Ni, Cr, Mo |
High Carbon Steel | 0.60% – 1.00% | 0.30% – 0.90% | ≤ 0.03% | ≤ 0.04% | Balance | Trace elements possible |
Alloy Carbon Steel | 0.30% – 0.50% | 0.60% – 1.65% | ≤ 0.035% | ≤ 0.040% | Balance | Cr, Mo, V, Ni (varies) |
There are several mechanical properties due to which Carbon Steel is used as a piping and tubing component for their ‘Durability’. They are given in the table below:
| Type | Tensile Strength | Yield Strength | Elongation (%) | Hardness (HB) | Impact Toughness |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Low Carbon Steel (e.g., ASTM A36, SAE 1018) | 400 – 550 MPa | 250 – 350 MPa | 20 – 30% | 119 – 163 | Good (even at low temps) |
| Medium Carbon Steel (e.g., SAE 1045) | 550 – 700 MPa | 300 – 500 MPa | 10 – 20% | 170 – 229 | Moderate |
| High Carbon Steel (e.g., SAE 1095) | 700 – 900+ MPa | 500 – 800 MPa | 5 – 10% | 200 – 300+ | Low (brittle in nature) |
| Alloy Carbon Steel (e.g., ASTM A193 B7) | 860 – 1040 MPa | 720 – 860 MPa | 12 – 18% | 200 – 248 | Enhanced with alloying |
These fittings are crucial in ensuring smooth, dependable, and ordinary fluid and gas waft at some stage in various high-stakes programs.
