# Carbon Steel Welding Services

![carbon-steel](https://www.superiorjt.com/hs-fs/hubfs/carbon-steel.jpg?width=400&height=400&name=carbon-steel.jpg)

Carbon steel is one of the most widely used grades of steel for [CNC machining](https://www.superiorjt.com/cnc-machining) and GTAW welding processes. Superior Joining Technologies, Inc. has the experience and expertise working with different grades of carbon steel, making sure our carbon steel CNC machined parts and carbon steel GTAW welding services beat your expectations for quality and timely completion.

Carbon steel is an iron-carbon alloy with carbon content ranging from .0218 percent to 2.11 percent. It also contains small amounts of silicon, manganese, sulfur, and phosphorus. Carbon steel has a higher carbon content than mild steel making it less ductile, but stronger. Generally, the higher the carbon content in carbon steel, the higher the hardness and strength, but the lower the plasticity.
