Microalloying—the art of adding incredibly small amounts of alloying elements (0.15% or less) to steel, and getting a big change—began in the late 1970s. It created a new category of forging steels ...

There are three basic distinctions among carbon steel grades, referred to as low-carbon, medium-carbon, and high-carbon steels. Carbon steel consists of numerous different grades that offer different ...

Those steel alloys known as high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels provide increased strength-to-weight ratios over conventional low-carbon steels for only a modest price premium. Because HSLA alloys ...

New generation general-purpose ferritic grade AWM 404GP™ can be used to replace the workhorse austenitic grade 304 in most applications. it is a corrosion resistant ferritic stainless steel with ...

Grade 440C martensitic stainless steel can achieve the highest strength, wear resistance and hardness of all the stainless alloys after heat treatment. The metal’s very high carbon content is ...
