0.05C Low Carbon Steel (var. 2)

metal

This is a low-carbon iron-nickel-silicon alloy with trace additions of refractory and transition metals (V, Mo, Nb, Cr, Co), designed to balance strength and ductility while maintaining ferriticity. The composition—dominated by ~16.6% Ni and ~5% Si with minimal carbon—suggests a material engineered for corrosion resistance, thermal stability, or controlled phase behavior in demanding environments, likely representing a specialized research or niche industrial variant rather than a commodity steel grade.

Industry-Specific

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
