Product Introduction

Carbon steel wire is the most common steel wire material for industrial and manufacture application with high hardness, strength, wear resistance and anti-corrosion. Carbon steel, is a metal alloy formed by combining various amounts of carbon and iron, with carbon content less than 1.35%. Other elements may also be present but in too small quantities to affect its physical properties.

Types of Carbon Steel Wire

The key factor distinguishing low carbon, medium carbon and high carbon steel wire is the content of carbon, and according to the different carbon content, it’s divided into the following types:

• Low Carbon Steel Wire: also know as iron wire or mild steel wire, the content of carbon is 0.04%-0.25%, has good plasticity and is often used to make galvanized wire, binding wire, iron nail, welded mesh, and mine screen, etc.

• Medium Carbon Steel Wire: the content of carbon is 0.25%-0.6%, has good toughness and strength, some kind of steel wires can be used to make umbrella rib, bicycle spoke, furring channel clip, steel strand wire and rope, etc.

• High Carbon Steel Wire: the content of carbon is 0.6%-2.0%, has high strength and hardness, high elastic limit and fatigue limit, some kind of steel wires are used to make springs, furring channel clips, steel strand wire and rope, etc.

Advantages of Carbon Steel Wire

1. High strength: Carbon steel wire has high strength and is an excellent structural material. It can withstand large tensile forces and maintain its shape. These characteristics make carbon steel wire widely used in construction, machinery manufacturing, automobile manufacturing and other fields.

2. Good plasticity and workability: Carbon steel wire is easy to process and form. It can be processed into various shapes and sizes through cold stamping, cold rolling, drawing and other processes. This makes carbon steel wire widely used in metal products, electrical appliance manufacturing, electronic equipment and other industries.

3. Strong corrosion resistance: Since the surface of carbon steel wire has been treated with galvanizing or copper plating, its corrosion resistance is greatly enhanced. This makes carbon steel wire widely used in construction, shipbuilding, chemical industry and other fields.

4. Good electrical conductivity: Carbon steel wire has excellent electrical conductivity and can be used to manufacture electrical equipment such as wires, cables, and motors. It can also be used for wires and connecting wires of electronic products, such as mobile phones, computers, etc.

5. Good wear resistance: After special treatment, the surface of carbon steel wire has strong wear resistance. This makes carbon steel wire widely used in the manufacturing of cutting tools, abrasives and other fields.

We have our own Physical & Chemical Testing Center Lab to guarantee our product quality. Our test items & instrument fully meet international standards.

Applications of Carbon Steel Wire

1. Construction industry: Carbon steel wire is often used in the manufacture of concrete steel bars and the reinforcement of building structures. It can enhance the tensile strength and durability of concrete and improve the overall structural performance of buildings.

2. Automobile manufacturing industry: Carbon steel wire is widely used in the manufacturing of automobile chassis, body, engine and other components. It has high strength, excellent plasticity and processability, and can improve the safety, durability and performance of automobiles.

3. Home appliance manufacturing industry: Carbon steel wire can be used to manufacture various parts in household appliances such as washing machines, refrigerators, and air conditioners. They have good strength and corrosion resistance, which can improve the service life and performance stability of home appliances.

4. Electronic equipment industry: Carbon steel wire is often used to manufacture connecting wires for electronic equipment such as wires, cables and motors. It has good conductivity and low resistance characteristics, which can ensure the normal operation and data transmission of electronic equipment.

5. Craft products industry: Carbon steel wire can be used to manufacture various craft products, such as wedding decorations, jewelry, artwork, etc. It has good plasticity and workability and can meet various complex shapes and design requirements.
