Hot Rolled Steel C1045
Grade Summary: Hot Rolled Steel C1045 is a medium carbon steel suitable for machining, forging, heat treating, cold drawing, etc. When heat treated, 1045 provides greater strength than can be obtained from lower carbon steels. Grade C1045 can be hammer forged, machinability is good, but forming and welding qualities are limited.
Typical Applications:
- Axles
- Machinery parts
- Stud bolts
- Ordinary shafts
- Pinions
- Gears
- Rock screens
- Forming dies
- Tool shanks.
