40C8 Grade Introduction:
40C8 Carbon steels have carbon as the key alloying element in their composition. They also contain up to 0.4% silicon and 1.2% manganese. In addition, residual elements such as copper, molybdenum, aluminum, chromium, and nickel are present in these steels.
40C8 Grade Application:
C40 Steel material is suitable for all general engineering applications requiring a higher strength than mild steel such as:
-
General Purpose Axles
-
Shafts
-
Gears
-
Bolts and Studs
-
Spindles
-
Automotive and General Engineering Components
-
General Engineering Parts etc.,
