Stainless Steel vs. Carbon Steel Plates

Carbon Steel Sheet Plate

Stainless Steel Composition Steel is made up primarily of iron and carbon. Steels with a higher carbon content tend to be hard and brittle, whereas steels with a lower carbon content tend to be ductile and robust. Of course, things are rarely that straightforward. To improve corrosion resistance or provide a better balance between strength … Read more

What are Grade 8.8 Carbon Steel Fasteners?

Carbon Steel Fasteners

Steel’s chemical composition is referred to as 8.8-grade steel. Carbon is the most common alloying element, accounting for over 98% of all alloying elements. 8.8 steel is characterized by an average silicon content of 0.08 to 0.18 percent, a manganese content of 0.13 to 0.2 percent, and an Aluminium content of 0.3 to 0.48 percent. … Read more
