AISI 1042 medium carbon structural steel plate is medium carbon structural steels, the material number of AISI 1042 medium carbon structural steel plate is 1.0503,katalor can regard AISI 1042 medium carbon structural steel plate as carbon steel. AISI 1042 medium carbon structural steel plate has a certain plasticity and toughness, high strength, good workability.
AISI 1042 medium carbon structural steel plate belongs carbon steel which is a steel with carbon content up to 2.1% by weight. American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) definition of Carbon Steel .Steel is considered to be carbon steel included AISI 1042 medium carbon structural steel plate minimum content is specified or required for chromium, cobalt, molybdenum, nickel, niobium, titanium, tungsten, vanadium or zirconium, or any other element to be added to obtain a desired alloying effect; the specified minimum for copper does not exceed 0.40 percent.
As the carbon percentage content rises, AISI 1042 medium carbon structural steel plate has the ability to become harder and stronger through heat treating; however, AISI 1042 medium carbon structural steel plate becomes less ductile. Regardless of the heat treatment, a higher carbon content reduces weldability. In carbon steels, the higher carbon content lowers the melting point.
