rbon steel 1040 is a medium-carbon steel suitable for load-bearing components. Its strength and wear resistance significantly exceed those of low-carbon steel, and it can achieve higher, more uniform strength and toughness through heat treatment (quenching and tempering). It is particularly well-suited for mechanical parts subjected to high stress and wear.
