AISI 1045 steel is characterized by good weldability, good machinability and high strength and impact properties in the normalized or hot-rolled condition. So AISI 1045 steel bar is a medium carbon steel designed to be able to function in areas requiring greater strength and hardness.

Type 201 stainless steel is an austenitic chromium-nickel-manganese stainless steel, which is developed to save nickel. Type 201 is a low-cost alternative to traditional Cr-Ni stainless steels such as 301 and 304. The nickel is replaced by added manganese and nitrogen. It cannot be hardened by heat treatment, but can reach high tensile strength by cold working. Type 201 is essentially non-magnetic in the annealed

304L is one of the austenitic stainless steels with a chromium content of at least 18%, a nickel content of at least 8%, and a maximum carbon content of 0.03. 304L stainless steel is an ideal choice for various household and commercial applications, with excellent corrosion resistance, ease of manufacturing and excellent formability.

En-8 (1040) It is an unalloyed medium carbon steel with reasonable tensile strength. It is usually supplied in a cold drawn or rolled state. Tensile properties may vary, but are usually between 500 - 800 N/mm. It is widely used in applications that require better performance than mild steel but cannot justify the cost of alloy steel.
