It depends on what steel it is.
There is Carbon steel and stainless steel (And perhaps others, but these are the main divisions).
Carbon steel has a melting point of 1425-1540 degree centigrade (2600- 2800 degree Fahrenheit).
Stainless steel on the other hand has a melting point of about 1510 degree centigrade (2750 degree Fahrenheit).
== == Steel often melts at around 1370 degrees C (2500 °F). This varies depending on the specific steel alloy. The specific heat of steel varied from 420J/KG/Deg C at room temperature to 720J/KG/Deg C at 1535 deg C. This equates to a theoretical heat requirement of approximately 375KWh/mt to melt steel from room temperature. In practice, foundries use between 500 and 800 KWh /mt to raise steel to a little above its melting point of 1535deg C.

∙ 13y agoIt depends on the type of steel. Steel is not one particular thing, there are different steels for different purposes.
Between 1100 - 1300 ºC

∙ 10y agoSteel often melts at around 1370 degrees C (2500°F). this varies as steel is a alloy of iron and carbon, so it depends on the make-up of the alloy.

How the energy of matter changes when it melts.?
When a solid melts, it is due to an increase in thermal energy to the temperature at which it melts.
What is the principle of liquation?
Liquation is the process of using controlled heat to separate a metal that melts at a relatively low temperature from a metal that melts at a higher temperature.
What is the temperature at which ice melts?
when temperature start increaseing from 0 degree, ice start melting
The temperature at which a substance freezes is lower than the temperature at which it melts?
Correct, the temperature at which a substance freezes is lower than the melting point.
What happens to temperature when energy is added as heat?
Either the temperature will increase, or it will remain the same. In the latter case, there is a phase change, as when ice melts.
Does steel melts?
Of course steel melts. That is how is shaped into steel objects.
Where does the steel go after it melts?
where does the steel go befor it melts
What is the temperature of welding arc to weld metal?
Depends on the metal, but for steel it is hot enough to melt the steel- and steel melts at 2600-2800 degrees F.
Is a steel a solid liquid or gas?
steel is all three. when it is heated it melts into a liquid. if it is heated even more it evaporates into a gas. if gas steel is cooled it condenses into liquid steel and if liquid steel is colled even more it hardens into a solid again
Is it good to say mile steel melts at 1500 degree celsius?
Each steel has another melting point; this temperature is approx. 1 200 0C.
How the energy of matter changes when it melts.?
When a solid melts, it is due to an increase in thermal energy to the temperature at which it melts.
What happens to iron and steel in damp conditions?
It melts
At which temperature silicon melts?
Silicon melts at 1414 C or 2577 F.
Is the temperature at which gold melts above or below room temperature?
Gold melts at 1064.18 °C, whereas room temperature is taken to be 20 to 25°C.
At whish temperature does chocolate melt?
it melts at a very hot temperature
What temperature does jewelry melt in a safe?
The same temperature it melts at out of a safe.
What temperature melts chloride salt melts?
The melting point of sodium chloride is 801 0C.
