Which of the following are made out of the carbon steel having carbon content of 0.9 to 1%?

Correct answer: A. Small punches, broaches reamers and springs

  • A. Small punches, broaches reamers and springs
  • B. Cutlery, screws, rivets and files
  • C. Mandrels, twist drills, small lathe tools and razors
  • D. Forgings like can shaft, structural steel plate, threading dies and drawing dies

Explanation

Carbon steel containing about 0.9 to 1% carbon is high-carbon steel, which provides high hardness and wear resistance for small punches, broaches, reamers, and springs. Lower-carbon steels are preferred for structural plates and many forgings.
