Carbon Steel

Carbon Steel Piping: This piping is an alloy of iron and carbon. Carbon steel exhibits high yield stress, high tensile strength, elasticity, ductility, and lack of brittleness which enable it to operate at high pressures. Carbon steel pipes have greater carrying capacity for a given pressure over pipes made with other materials with the same outer diameter. Carbon steel pipes are supplied in longer lengths than pipes made with other materials, requiring fewer assembly joints. Corrosion is a major disadvantage in carbon steel pipes.
