Carbon Steel Tubing

Carbon Steel Tubing contains 2.1% carbon of its total weight. Carbon steel Tubing is best described when the minimum content of alloying elements is not defined. The alloying elements in CS Tubing include nickel, chromium, molybdenum, cobalt, titanium, tungsten, vanadium, and zirconium. The minimum copper in carbon steel also is only 0.40% of its total weight.

Carbon Steel Tubing has increased carbon content, which causes them to become more rigid and robust. Heat treatment is used to enhance the strength and hardness of these steels. The higher carbon content also reduces the weldability of these steels. CS Tubing is found in three types low-carbon, high-tensile, and higher-carbon steel tubes. Low-carbon tubing is further available as high-tensile, low-carbon steel tubes. These mild carbon steel tubings are highly used. The less carbon in these Tubing also makes them malleable and ductile. The tensile strength in these low-carbon Tubing is low. High-tensile carbon steel is added with alloying elements to produce tubing with high tensile strength. The added elements help in providing increased strength, as well.

Carbon steel tubes have long been a cornerstone of manufacturing, construction, and engineering due to their superior strength and reliability. Multiple CS tube grades are available in the market today, with each offering its own set of benefits depending on the intended use. For example, carbon steel round tubes are often preferred for applications requiring greater structural integrity, while seamless carbon steel tubes are ideal for applications that require near-perfect specifications, like hydraulic cylinders and piping systems. Ultimately, working with experienced carbon steel tube manufacturers is vital to ensuring quality and consistency across projects that call for carbon steel tubing.


FAQs of Carbon Steel Tubes.

Q. What is the high carbon steel carbon percentage?

Ans: High Carbon Steels typically contain carbon from 0.60% to 1.70% with manganese ranging from 0.30% to 0.90%.


Q. What is the low carbon steel carbon percentage?

Ans: The carbon percentage for low-carbon steel is typically between 0.04-0.30%.


Q. What is the medium carbon steel carbon content?

Ans: The carbon content for medium carbon steel is typically between 0.30-0.60%.


Q. Difference between carbon steel vs stainless steel pipes?

Ans: Carbon steel and stainless steel are two different types of metal alloy, each with its properties. Carbon steel is composed primarily of iron and carbon, with smaller amounts of other elements. Stainless steel contains chromium, which gives it corrosion-resistant properties.

Carbon steel is more likely to corrode in certain conditions than stainless steel, thanks to its higher iron levels. However, carbon steel is more resilient and robust than stainless steel in high-temperature environments due to its higher levels of carbon.

Also, carbon steel can be cheaper than stainless steel but carries a trade-off in strength and durability. Stainless, however, will cost more but will last longer and require less maintenance over time.


Q. which applications high carbon steel is used in?

Ans: High-carbon steels are often used for applications that require strength and durability. Common uses for high-carbon steel include:

  • Cutting tools, such as knives and saw blades
  • Gears, such as axles and sprockets
  • Springs and wires
  • Automotive components, including engine mounts and shafts
  • Building construction materials, including reinforcement bars and nails
  • Industrial machinery components, like gears or transmission parts


Q. What is the carbon steel pipe density kg m3?

Ans: The density of carbon steel typically ranges from 7.75 to 8.05 kg/m3.


Q. What are carbon steel pipe dimensions?

Ans: The dimensions of carbon steel pipes typically range from 1/8" to 26". The wall thicknesses for different schedule numbers vary based on the nominal pipe size. For example, a Schedule 40 pipe with a 2" Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) has a wall thickness of 0.154 inches.


Q. What is the carbon steel pipe corrosion rate?

Ans: The corrosion rate of carbon steel pipe depends on a variety of factors, including moisture exposure, water temperature and pH. Generally speaking, the corrosion rate of carbon steel pipes ranges from 0.1 to 1 mils per year (mpy). The rate can be higher under certain environmental conditions.
