Mild Steel You Can Rely On

Premium mild steel typically has a carbon content of 0.05% to 0.25% and is a popular choice for projects that require ductile and malleable steel, rather than a stiffer metal with less machinability. Businesses choose our mild steel for a range of jobs including some railway tracks, construction tools and industrial buildings. With thousands of tonnes of steel on-site and ready for next day delivery, your business can order and receive the mild steel profile or plate that it needs in next to no time.

Why Mild Steel?

Affordability

As it’s easier to produce and takes less time to process, mild steel is one of the cheapest steel options available to businesses.

Weldability and Machinability

Mild steel can be worked on and coalesced with relative ease without distorting the material. This can be quite beneficial depending on what you need the material for and is one of the main reasons businesses choose mild steel over other metals.

Carburising

One of the downsides of mild steel is that it has a low tensile strength. Fortunately, this can be improved using a method called carburising, which improves the strength and longevity of the steel whilst still keeping costs down.
