Low-Carbon Steel Rectangular Tubes

Also known as mild steel, low-carbon steel is easy to machine, form, and weld. These tubes are often fabricated into parts that don’t require high strength, such as frames, supports, and raceways. To increase their wear resistance, you can surface harden them with heat treating. These tubes are manufactured to ASTM or EN standards for quality and performance.

Easy-to-Weld Wear-Resistant 8620 Alloy Steel Rods

- Yield Strength: 55,000 psi
- Hardness: Rockwell B85 (Medium)
- Heat Treatable: Yes
- Max. Hardness After Heat Treatment: Rockwell C60
- Fabrication: Cold Worked
- Specifications Met: ASTM A108
While the low carbon content makes 8620 alloy steel easy-to-weld, it's the nickel, chromium, and molybdenum content that provides wear resistance.

Easy-to-Weld Wear-Resistant 8620 Alloy Steel Sheets

- Yield Strength: Not Rated
- Hardness: Not Rated
- Heat Treatable: Yes
- Max. Hardness After Heat Treatment: Not Rated
- Fabrication: Hot Rolled
- Specifications Met: ASTM A829
Made of 8620 alloy steel, these sheets have low levels of carbon that make them easy to weld. High nickel, chromium, and molybdenum content make them resistant to wear. For even greater wear resistance, you can harden their surface with heat treating. They’re often used for wear plates and structural supports. These sheets have been manufactured to meet ASTM standards for quality and performance.
