How hard can 1020 steel be heat treated to?

AISI 1020 carbon steel can be hardened by heating between 815- 871°C (1500 – 1600°F), which should be followed by water quenching.

How much carbon does AISI steel 1020 contain?

1020 is one of the very commonly used plain carbon steels. It has a nominal carbon content of 0.20% with approximately 0.50% manganese. It is a good combination of strength and ductility and may be hardened or carburized.

Is AISI 1020 weldable?

AISI 1020 has low hardenability properties and is a low tensile carbon steel with a Brinell hardness of 119 – 235, and a tensile strength of 410-790 MPa. It has high machinability, high strength, high ductility and good weldability. It is normally used in turned and polished or a cold drawn condition.

Is 1020 steel cold rolled?

AISI 1020 steel can be largely utilized in all industrial sectors in order to enhance weldability or machinability properties. It is used in a variety of applications due to its cold drawn or turned and polished finish property.

What is C1020 steel?

C1020 is also known as 1020 steel plate and is used in the turned and polished or cold drawn condition. It has a low carbon content and is therefore resistant to induction or flame hardening. It also won’t respond to nitriding due to its lack of alloying elements.

What type of steel is AISI 1020?
