What Are The Types And Application Fields Of Carbon Steel Plates?

1. Types of carbon steel plates
According to the chemical composition and mechanical properties of carbon steel plates, carbon steel plates can be divided into the following categories:
1) Low carbon steel plate: carbon content is less than 0.05%.
2) Medium carbon steel plate: The carbon content is between 0.3% and 0.6%.
3) High carbon steel plate: carbon content is above 0.6%.
In addition, according to the processing status of the steel plate, carbon steel plates can be divided into hot-rolled steel plates and cold-rolled steel plates. Hot-rolled steel plates are generally used in the manufacture of thick plates, while cold-rolled steel plates are suitable for the manufacture of thin plates and thin-shell structural components.
2. Application fields of carbon steel plates
Carbon steel plates have high strength and rigidity, as well as good plasticity and weldability, so they are widely used in machinery, construction, ships, bridges, automobiles and other fields. For example, carbon steel plates are used in automobile bodies, mechanical equipment parts, and building structures.
