The new bars that attach to the pylon are made of low-carbon corrosion-resistant stainless steel.
Soft, low-carbon steel was used, but strong materials were needed for the receivers of firearms.
Furthermore, because the temperatures were so low in the bloomeries, only low-carbon steel was able to be produced (wrought iron).
It is stronger than common, low-carbon steels, but 45% lighter.
Alloys not amenable to heat treatment, including low-carbon steel, are often work-hardened.
Steel wool is made from low-carbon steel (low enough to be close to plain iron).
These tools are usually made of low-carbon steel.
The low-carbon steels also frequently exhibit lower strengths at high temperatures.
These were made of low-carbon steel and usually took the form of multiple layer leaf springs.
On the other end of the spectrum, low-carbon steels are troublesome because they are too soft.
