Abhinav Overseas: Carbon Steel Supplier & Stockist in India

Carbon steel is a steel alloy where carbon is the primary alloying element, containing up to 2.1% carbon by weight. The carbon content influences the steel's properties, with higher carbon content increasing hardness and strength while reducing ductility.

Abhinav Overseas is a leading supplier and stockist of high-quality carbon steel products in India. We offer a comprehensive range of carbon steel materials that meet international standards and specifications.

Our carbon steel products are known for their excellent mechanical properties, durability, and cost-effectiveness, making them suitable for various industrial applications across sectors.

Carbon Steel

Carbon steel is classified into three main categories based on carbon content: low carbon steel (mild steel), medium carbon steel, and high carbon steel. Each type offers different properties and is suitable for specific applications.

Key Benefits

  • Cost-effective compared to many alloy steels
  • Excellent strength and durability
  • Good machinability and weldability (especially low carbon grades)
  • High tensile strength
  • Versatile for various applications
  • Recyclable material
