070M55
Carbon Steel
070M55 is a low alloy steel that falls within the category of high-strength, fine-grain steels. It typically contains around 0.55% carbon, along with manganese, silicon, and trace amounts of other elements. Known for its good weldability and toughness, 070M55 is commonly used in structural applications, particularly in the manufacturing of components like beams, frames, and shafts. Its strength and ductility make it suitable for demanding environments, including construction and heavy machinery. However, it may require surface treatment or coatings for enhanced corrosion resistance, as it is not inherently stainless.
