Application:

Carbon steel rods have a wide range of applications.

In the field of machinery manufacturing, carbon steel rods are often used to manufacture various shaft parts, such as drive shafts, motor shafts, etc. Because carbon steel rods have good strength and toughness, they can withstand large torques and loads.

In the construction industry, they can be used to make connectors, supports, etc. in building structures. For example, in steel structure buildings, they are used as connecting parts between steel beams and steel columns.

In the automotive industry, carbon steel rods can be processed into semi-shafts, connecting rods and other parts of automobiles.

In the field of mold manufacturing, carbon steel rods can be used to make guide posts, guide sleeves, etc. of molds.

In the hardware tool industry, the rod of tools such as wrenches and screwdrivers is often made of carbon steel rods. In addition, in some agricultural machinery, mining machinery and other equipment, carbon steel rods also play an important role. For example, the transmission shaft in a certain type of agricultural harvester is made of carbon steel rods of specific specifications, which ensures stable operation in complex operating environments. For example, the guide post in an industrial mold uses high-quality carbon steel rods to ensure the accuracy and stability of mold opening and closing.

Physical and chemical properties:

Physical Properties：

The density of carbon steel is usually around 7.85 g/cm3. Hardness: Its hardness depends on the carbon content and heat treatment process. Generally speaking, the higher the carbon content, the greater the hardness.

Ductility: It has ductility to a certain extent and can be deformed by processing.

Electrical and Thermal Conductivity:

Good electrical and thermal conductivity.

Chemical Properties :

Oxidation Resistance: At room temperature, a thin oxide film will form on the surface of carbon steel rod, but in high temperature or corrosive environment, oxidation reaction is prone to occur.

Corrosion Resistance:

Relatively poor, susceptible to corrosion by acids, alkalis and other chemicals.

Plateability:

Surface treatment can be carried out by electroplating, hot dip plating and other methods to improve its corrosion resistance and decorative properties. For example, in some chemical plant equipment, if untreated carbon steel rods are used, they may be quickly damaged by chemical erosion; while in the field of power transmission, the good conductivity of carbon steel rods can effectively transmit electrical energy, but it is necessary to pay attention to its protection against oxidation and corrosion.
