1018 Mild Steel Plate China

1018 carbon steel plate is a very commonly used low carbon steel plate, which belongs to the plate form of 1018 steel. It is very popular in the industrial and manufacturing fields because of its good mechanical properties and processability.

About 1018 carbon steel:
Main features:
Carbon content: about 0.18%, which belongs to low carbon steel
Performance:
Good weldability
Good mechanical properties (such as strength and toughness)
Easy to cold work
Good surface finish and polishing performance

Processability:
Easy to form, stamp and cut
After heat treatment (such as annealing), the toughness and work hardening ability can be improved
Corrosion resistance:
Its natural corrosion resistance is limited, but it can be improved by surface treatment (painting, plating, etc.).

Common uses:
Machine parts
Automotive parts
Architecture and structural parts
Architectural decoration
Various types of molds and engineering plates
