C45 Carbon Steel Plate Supplier – Product Overview

C45 is an unalloyed medium carbon steel known for its moderate tensile strength and excellent machining properties. As a leading C45 carbon steel supplier, we provide high-quality plates and forged products suitable for a wide range of engineering applications. This steel is generally supplied in the untreated or normalized condition, but can also be hardened and tempered to improve strength and wear resistance.

Key Features

• High Tensile Strength: Provides enhanced durability and load-bearing capacity.
• Good Machinability: Ideal for precision engineering.
• Heat Treatable: Can be hardened and tempered for specific applications.
• Excellent Weldability & Formability: Allows easy shaping and fabrication.
• Superior Stability at High Temperatures: Performs well in extreme conditions.
