View Sample Alloy Digest Data Sheet (PDF)Since 1952, Alloy Digest has been the leading reference for materials property data on metals and alloys used throughout the world. Featuring graphs, charts and tables, these sheets give facts and figures on composition or characterization, physical and mechanical properties, heat treatment, and machinability.UNS No. G10450 is a plain carbon steel containing nominally 0.45% carbon. It may be used in four conditions: hot rolled, normalized, oil quenched and tempered or water quenched and tempered. It is a general-purpose construction and engineering steel and provides medium strength and medium toughness at low cost. It is suitable for flame- or induction-hardened parts. Among its many uses are axles, shafts, bolts, rods, pipe, wire and tools.
