Overall 1095 does prove to be a little more difficult to heat treat for some makers as it is hyper eutectoid and best used with an accurate means of reading temperature and a fast quench oil we recommend parks 50.
Carbon steel 1095 sheet.
Aisi 1095 carbon steel is brittle and has high hardness and strength.
1095 steel is a basic form of carbon steel and is most commonly used in the construction of various kinds of knives.
It also contains the use of 1095 such as it is commonly used in bars sheet plates steel coils steel pipes forged and other materials application.
Carbon steel blanks flats bars plates and sheet stock from grainger come in a variety of widths lengths and thicknesses for your industrial applications.
Applications of 1074 1075 scaleless strip steel includes snap springs lock springs trap springs and more.
It has a carbon content of 95 which serves to harden the steel and reduce the amount of wear that a blade will experience over time.
Ninety five carbon cold rolled annealed strip steel also known as aisi 1095 carbon spring steel is the very finest of commercial quality standard grade high carbon spring steel strip available.
Despite the reduction in wear created by the high presence of carbon 1095 steel is not as tough as other types of steel due to the lower levels of manganese which serves to harden the steel.
Elements such as nickel copper aluminium and molybdenum are present in small traces.
They also contain 0 4 of silicon and 1 2 of manganese.
1095 high carbon steel uses mainly include chef knife kitchen knife pocket knife mower knives bowie knife hunting knife doctor blade wear parts various springs plow beams ploughshares scraper blades and brake discs.

Carbon is the main alloying element present in carbon steels.
Aisi sae 1095 carbon steel can be made into steel billets steel powder which can be used as tool steel blade steel spring steel.
Select low steel and mild steel rectangular or square carbon steel bars in hot rolled and cold rolled tempers that are readily brazed or welded good for screw machining and that offer you excellent ductility.
It is of fine grain structure has been completely spheroidized with rockwell held to the medium or low side of range.
