1045 is a medium carbon steel is used when greater strength and hardness is desired than in the "as rolled" condition. Extreme size accuracy, straightness and concentricity combine to minimize wear in high speed applications. Commonly used in gears, shafts, axles, bolts, studs and machine parts.

Carbon Steel: Properties, Production, Examples and Applications

Carbon steel is an iron-carbon alloy, which contains up to 2.1 wt.% carbon. For carbon steels, there is no minimum specified content of other alloying elements, however, they often contain manganese. The maximum manganese, silicon and copper content should be less than 1.65 wt.%, 0.6 wt.% and 0.6 wt.%, respectively.

Types of carbon steel and their properties

Carbon steel can be classified into three categories according to its carbon content: low-carbon steel (or mild-carbon steel), medium-carbon steel and high-carbon steel [1]. Their carbon content, microstructure and properties compare as follows:

Carbon content (wt.%)	Microstructure	Properties	Examples
Low-carbon steel	< 0.25	Ferrite, pearlite	Low hardness and cost. High ductility, toughness, machinability and weldability	AISI 304, ASTM A815, AISI 316L
Medium-carbon steel	0.25 – 0.60	Martensite	Low hardenability, medium strength, ductility and toughness	AISI 409, ASTM A29, SCM435
High-carbon steel	0.60 – 1.25	Pearlite	High hardness, strength, low ductility	AISI 440C, EN 10088-3

DETALLES DEL PRODUCTO

1045 Cold Rolled Steel Plate

Carbon steels are a category of steels with 0.12 to 2% carbon content. AISI 1045 is a medium carbon steel designed to be able to function in areas requiring greater strength and hardness. This steel possesses excellent size accuracy, concentricity, and straightness which together enable to minimize wear in high speed applications. AISI 1045 can be formed into turned, ground and polished bars that can be machined unsymmetrically with limited distortion.

The following sections will discuss in detail about AISI 1045 carbon steel.
