1045 Medium Carbon Steel
Alro stocks 1045 Steel in steel beams and plates. 1045 grade steel is a medium carbon steel used extensively in induction hardening applications. 1045 is not normally considered a screw machine steel and is only fair for brazing and welding. However, it can be forged satisfactorily and is the most common shafting steel in the medium carbon range.
