Carbon steel is the most common type of steel and contains about 0.1 to 0.3 percent carbon. In general, an increase in the amount of carbon reduces ductility but increases tensile strength and the ability to harden through tempering. As an industry-wide practice, steel that does not contain any specified or standard amount of one or more alloying elements to be classified as alloy steel (such as chromium, molybdenum, nickel, titanium, vanadium) is called carbon steel.
