Comprehensive Guide to Steel Grades

This document provides information on various carbon steels, stainless steels, tool steels, and other alloys. It lists the composition, properties, and applications of each grade. Carbon steels have good weldability but lower strength compared to other alloys. Stainless steels like 304 and 316 have higher corrosion resistance but more care is needed during welding and machining. Tool steels like D2 and D6 exhibit high wear resistance and are used for punches, dies, and cutting tools. Precipitation hardened and duplex grades combine high strength with good corrosion resistance.
