Common materials used for machined parts-5

Latest company news about Common materials used for machined parts-5

Steel: As with stainless steels, there are far too many alloys and properties to cover here. But four important issues to consider are:

  • Steels generally cost less than stainless steels and superalloys
  • In the presence of air and humidity, all steels corrode
  • Most steels are quite machinable, with the exception of some tool steels
  • The lower the carbon content, the less hard steels can be made (indicated by the alloy’s first two digits, as in 1018, 4340, or 8620, three common selections). That said, steel, and its cousin iron, are by far the most commonly used of all metals, with aluminum coming in a close second.
