Mild Steel
Mild steel, also known as low carbon steel, is a popular type of steel due to its affordability, versatility, and ease of fabrication. It is made mainly of iron and carbon, with small amounts of other elements. Mild steel is highly malleable and can be easily formed into different shapes and structures. It has a relatively low carbon content, making it soft and easy to work with while still providing sufficient strength.
It is widely used in construction, automotive manufacturing, machinery, and other industries. Mild steel is ideal for welding, bending, and machining. However, it needs proper maintenance and protection against corrosion as it is prone to rust when exposed to moisture.
