Which of the following contains maximum percentage of carbon ?

Correct answer: C. Saws for cutting steel

  • A. Boiler plate steel
  • B. Rail steel
  • C. Saws for cutting steel
  • D. Railway spring steel

Explanation

Steel saws require high hardness and edge retention, so they generally contain more carbon than boiler-plate, rail, or spring steel. Increased carbon improves hardness but reduces ductility and weldability.
