Between 121-137 on the Brinell hardness scale - which is quite soft. The end parts are generally case-hardened before use to 60+ Rockwell "C".

What is the equivalent IS steel of ASTM A36 steel?
Its IS226 for structural steel & IS2062 for fusion weldable structural steel.
What is difference between 1018 steel and WCB?
AISI 1018 is usual quality structural grade A216 Gr WCB is Steel Castings, Carbon, Suitable for Fusion Welding, for High- Temperature Service
Steel is formed whena little bit of carbon is added to this element.the carbon gives strength and hardness to steel?
IRON
Why crane hook materia is high carbon steel?
the main reason might be that the percentage of carbon increase the hardness of material (steel ) and ductility would decrease
How much percentage of carbon makes it high carbon or medium carbon or low carbon HC MC LC in a ferro-alloy?
* Mild (low carbon) steel: approximately 0.05-0.15% carbon content for low carbon steel and 0.16-0.29% carbon content for mild steel (e.g. AISI 1018 steel). Mild steel has a relatively low tensile strength, but it is cheap and malleable; surface hardness can be increased through carburizing. * Medium carbon steel: approximately 0.30-0.59% carbon content(e.g. AISI 1040 steel). Balances ductility and strength and has good wear resistance; used for large parts, forging and automotive components. * High carbon steel: approximately 0.6-0.99% carbon content. Very strong, used for springs and high-strength wires. * Ultra-high carbon steel: approximately 1.0-2.0% carbon content. Steels that can be tempered to great hardness. Used for special purposes like (non-industrial-purpose) knives, axles or punches. Most steels with more than 1.2% carbon content are made using powder metallurgy and usually fall in the category of high alloy carbon steels.
What is the hardness of 1018 Annealed steel?
In a lab experiment, I found the hardness of a sample of C-1018 Annealed carbon steel to be 73.58 (averaged over 6 runs) on the HRB scale.
What is the rockwell of 1018 steel?
Rockwell Hardness of steel 1018 ranges from 71 to 78 converted from Brinell hardness. The difference from 71 to 78 is caused by manufacturing metods and/or purity of the alloy. The corresponding test for 1018 is RHB wich must be done using 1/16 a ball penetrator.
What does 1018 mean?
1018 is the number "one thousand and eighteen."It is also the name for 1018 steel which is the most common low-carbon mild steel alloy in many uses, including structural steel.
Carbon is added to engine parts to enhance-------- property?
Hardness - when carbon is added to steel, the hardness is increased
What is the main alloy in steel that determines its hardness?
Carbon. as steel is a composition of iron with carbon and other elements such as nickel
What is the equivalent IS steel of ASTM A36 steel?
Its IS226 for structural steel & IS2062 for fusion weldable structural steel.

AISI 1018 is usual quality structural grade A216 Gr WCB is Steel Castings, Carbon, Suitable for Fusion Welding, for High- Temperature Service
What is the hardness of 55 -58 HRC mean?
Hardness of metal is determined by the carbon content. HRC is the Rockwell Hardness Scale. A hardness of 55-58 is not very hard compared to carbon steel.

What is B4A72A steel?
B4A72A is an old General Electric designation for a low carbon hot rolled plate steel grade similar in composition to AISI 1015 or 1018.
