The Carbon Steel EN 10083-2 Grade C45R Pipe is a medium carbon, non-alloy steel that boasts a well-balanced composition and dependable mechanical properties. It typically contains around 0.45% carbon, 0.50–0.80% manganese, along with trace amounts of silicon, phosphorus, and sulfur. This steel offers impressive tensile strength ranging from 570 to 700 MPa, a yield strength of about 330 MPa, and good impact resistance. It also provides moderate weldability and excellent machinability, particularly in the “R” variant, which is designed for enhanced machinability. These characteristics make it ideal for heat treatment processes, boosting its hardness and wear resistance for demanding mechanical applications.
