carbon-and-alloy-steel-ck45

CK45 is a medium carbon steel known for its excellent mechanical properties and versatility in various industrial applications. It is widely used in scenarios where higher strength and hardness are required compared to standard steel grades. CK45 is commonly employed in the production of components such as shafts, gears, axles, bolts, and automotive parts due to its exceptional wear resistance and durability. Its superior dimensional accuracy, straightness, and concentricity contribute to minimizing wear in high-speed and precision applications, ensuring longer service life and reduced maintenance. Additionally, CK45 offers good machinability and weldability, making it a preferred choice for manufacturing and repair tasks.
