Medium Carbon Steel Wire
Medium carbon steel wire (0.25%–0.60% carbon) balances strength, hardness, and ductility, making it ideal for structural components, springs, fasteners (bolts/nuts), and automotive parts (gears/axles). Often found in galvanized or oil-coated finishes, it is stronger than low-carbon alternatives but less brittle than high-carbon.
Key Characteristics & Applications
Composition: Contains 0.25% to 0.60% carbon and 0.6% to 1.65% manganese.
Properties: High tensile strength, good wear resistance, and moderate toughness.
Common Applications: Mechanical springs (compression/torsion), automotive suspension systems, industrial machinery components, wire ropes, and fasteners.
Finishes: Available in galvanized (for corrosion resistance), oil-coated, or phosphate-coated (to reduce friction during forming).
Common Grades: Often includes 1030, 1040, 1045, 1050, and 1060 grades.
It is frequently used when components require higher strength than mild steel can provide but do not need the extreme hardness of high-carbon wire.
