AISI 1008/1010

AISI 1008 and 1010 are low-carbon steels widely used for forgings due to their excellent formability, weldability, and cost-effectiveness.

Descriptions

1. Chemical Composition

The chemical compositions of AISI 1008 and 1010 (per ASTM A29/A29M and SAE J403 standards) are:

2. Mechanical Properties

Typical mechanical properties for AISI 1008/1010 forgings (annealed or cold-worked condition):

3. Key Advantages

Low cost: Economical for high-volume production.

Ease of fabrication: Excellent weldability and machinability.

Surface finish: Suitable for plating, painting, or galvanizing.

4. Limitations

Low strength: Not suitable for high-stress applications (e.g., aerospace).

Corrosion susceptibility: Requires coatings for outdoor or corrosive environments.

Applications

Oil & Gas Industry

Pipeline Components: Flanges, pipe connectors, and valve bodies for low-pressure systems. Support brackets and clamps for piping networks. Drilling Equipment: Non-load-bearing parts (e.g., tool handles, housing covers). Temporary scaffolding and work platforms.

Mining Industry

Material Handling Systems: Conveyor chain links, rollers, and brackets. Hopper liners and chute components (non-abrasive zones). Support Structures: Bolts, pins, and fasteners for temporary structures. Lightweight frames for ventilation ducts. Equipment Maintenance: Replacement parts for low-wear machinery (e.g., hinge pins, spacers).

Power Generation Industry

Brackets and mounting plates for turbines (non-rotational parts). Cable trays and conduit supports in power plants.

Aerospace Industry

Ground Support Equipment: Tooling jigs, workbenches, and maintenance carts. Non-critical fasteners for hangar structures. Aircraft Interiors: Seat adjustment mechanisms (non-structural parts). Overhead bin latches and handles. Prototyping: Low-cost test components for design validation.
