C45 All

General Information
Grade SB-C45 is one of our carbon steel grades with a narrowed chemical composition in order to reach a high hardenability and it is also fine grain
treated with Al.
Grade 047A is an ingot casted low alloyed steel. High hardness and high strength can be achieved after hardening thanks to the relatively high
carbon content. The steel is suitable for various type of applications where high strength is needed.
