Forged carbon, alloy and tool steels are used for applications in almost every industry due to their unique properties and versatility.
CARBON STEEL
Low-cost carbon steel grades are commonly used for applications without high strength or operating in high-temperature environments.
ALLOY STEEL
Alloy steel uses additional alloying elements for increased hardenability and improved properties.
TOOL STEEL
Tool steel combines selected alloy steel and carbon steel grades, and its high hardness and abrasion resistance characteristics make it ideal for cutting and machining various types of metals.

The hardenability of carbon steel is limited because only carbon is used in the material. Many grades of carbon steel are hardenable through heat treatment that includes quenching and tempering steps; however, the super high strength of stainless steels cannot be achieved with carbon steel.
Adding alloying elements - Manganese, chromium, nickel and molybdenum are some of the elements used for increased strength, toughness and wear resistance compared to carbon steel. Other desirable characteristics such as corrosion resistance, strength at elevated temperature and creep resistance are also achieved through alloying element additions.
Major alloying elements in tool steel are chromium, molybdenum, vanadium and tungsten. These carbide formers allow tool steel to resist deformation and maintain a sharp cutting edge at high temperatures.
Scot Forge is proud to be ISO : and ASD certified, and our team is committed to providing outstanding customer satisfaction. Further pursuance of aerospace products has led to NADCAP accreditation in both heat treatment and nondestructive testing for titanium material.
