High Carbon Steel Strips: Properties, Grades, and Industrial Applications

Table of Contents

high carbon steel strips

High carbon steel strips are one of the most essential materials in modern manufacturing. Known for their strength, hardness, and durability, these strips are widely used in springs, cutting tools, and automotive components. For manufacturers, choosing the right grade of steel strip can directly affect product performance, cost efficiency, and product lifespan.


Key Properties of High Carbon Steel Strips

  • High Strength & Hardness – Superior hardness makes them ideal for demanding applications.
  • Wear Resistance – Reliable performance under friction and continuous use.
  • Elasticity – Excellent spring properties, ensuring flexibility without breaking.

Typical hardness values range between 200–600 HV, and through heat treatment (such as annealing, quenching, and tempering), the strips can be customized for specific applications.


Common Grades and Their Applications

Different grades of spring steel strips are available, each offering unique mechanical properties:

  • C67S – Balanced hardness and flexibility, widely used for springs.
  • C75S – Excellent elasticity, perfect for rolling shutter springs and saw blades.
  • C80 – Higher hardness, suitable for industrial cutting blades and clutch discs.
  • C95S – Superior strength, ideal for heavy-duty knives and precision parts.

By selecting the right grade, manufacturers can optimize durability, elasticity, and performance.


Industrial Applications

High carbon steel strips are widely applied in multiple industries:

  1. Industrial Knives & Cutting Tools – Maintain sharpness and wear resistance.
  2. Automotive Components – Used in clutch discs, washers, suspension parts.
  3. Rolling Shutter Springs – Provide long-lasting flexibility and toughness.

These properties make them a preferred material in industries requiring high precision and reliability.
