This steel plate is rust proof in their make and it has been made using the best technology available in the market and they have been priced at very reasonable rates in the market.
Applications
- Robust construction
- Resistance to atmospheric corrosion
- High ductility
C45 steel plate, EN 10083 C45 steel plate, under EN 10083 standard, we can regard C45 steel plate as high carbon steel. C45 steel plate is one mainly of high carbon steel,EN 10083 C45 steel plate is for quenching and tempering. Technical delivery conditions for non-alloysteels, these steels are for general engineering purposes
About C45: C45 is a medium-carbon (0.42–0.50% C) non-alloy steel, not a rust-proof steel: it needs painting, oiling or plating to resist corrosion. TISCRAL is a separate wear-resistant plate, listed on our High Tensile Plates page. The three points above are general properties rather than applications; typical applications are listed further down this page.

Reading the table: The water- and oil-quenched figures (for example 2270 MPa and 58 HRC) describe C45 in the as-quenched state, before tempering, and plate is not supplied in that condition. EN 10083-2 gives minimum properties for the normalized (+N) and quenched and tempered (+QT) conditions, which fall as thickness increases. Order against the condition and thickness you need.

Compare C45 Delivery Conditions Before Purchasing
| Condition | What it gives | Typical selection focus |
|---|---|---|
| As rolled | Lowest cost; properties vary with thickness | Parts that will be heat-treated after machining |
| Normalized (+N) | Uniform, refined structure and predictable machining | General machined parts and blanks |
| Annealed | Softest condition, easiest to machine and form | Heavy machining before hardening |
| Quenched and tempered (+QT) | Higher strength and toughness, ready to use | Shafts, gears and parts used without further heat treatment |
C45 has limited hardenability: through-hardening is restricted to thinner sections. For thick, highly stressed parts, compare an alloy steel such as EN19 / 42CrMo4.
How to Select the Right C45 Plate
- Part function
- Section size
- Heat treatment
- Machining
- Welding
Choose C45 for machined parts that need more strength and wear resistance than mild steel, and that can be surface- or flame-hardened. Decide whether you will heat-treat after machining (order as rolled, normalized or annealed) or need the plate ready to use (order +QT). C45 needs preheat for welding because of its carbon content, so it is not a structural welding grade. This guidance supports purchasing; the designer's approved grade and condition decide suitability.
Applications and Service Requirements
| Application | Condition to evaluate | Selection input |
|---|---|---|
| Machine parts and base plates | As rolled or normalized | Machining, flatness and thickness |
| Gears, sprockets and cams | Normalized, then surface-hardened | Surface hardness and case depth |
| Shafts and axles from plate | Quenched and tempered | Strength and section size |
| Dies, tools and fixtures | Normalized or +QT | Wear, hardness and size |
| Wear strips and guides | Flame- or induction-hardened | Wear surface and hardness |
These are material application examples. Final selection depends on the actual service conditions and specification.
Cut-to-Size C45 Blanks and Profiles
C45 plate can be cut to size and shape to your drawings through our cutting services, including plasma cutting. Send the condition, thickness, drawing, quantity, tolerances and machining allowance. Thermal cutting hardens a narrow zone at the cut edge of medium-carbon steel, so allow for this before machining.
Testing, Material Documents and Traceability
State the certificate type and test scope with the RFQ. A mill test certificate for the plate and the company's quality-system certification are different documents.
| Requirement | What to identify in the order |
|---|---|
| Material certificate | EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2, showing grade, chemistry, delivery condition and mechanical or hardness results |
| Hardness | Hardness range and test method, where your drawing sets one |
| Internal soundness | Ultrasonic testing standard and class for thick plate, where required |
| Traceability and inspection | Heat number on plate and certificate; buyer or third-party inspection |
Review our Quality Policy and include your inspection requirements in the enquiry.
Why Source C45 Plates from Champak Industries?
Our Mumbai service centre supplies C45 alongside C35, C40, EN19 and other engineering steel plate, so one enquiry can cover several grades. Plates can be cut to size and shape to your drawings, with the documents you need for India or export. Read our Company Profile for the wider supply offering.
C45 Plate Price and Quotation
Price depends on the delivery condition, thickness, plate size, quantity, cutting, testing, inspection, packing and destination. Quenched and tempered plate costs more than as-rolled or normalized plate. Send a complete requirement for a quotation stating the price basis, tax/freight treatment and validity.
Domestic Dispatch and Export Requirements
For domestic orders, give the delivery address and unloading requirements. For exports, specify the destination, delivery terms, packing and marking instructions and the shipping documents required, with your required delivery date. Ask for rust-preventive oiling if plates will be stored before machining.

Frequently Asked Questions About C45 Plates
01What is C45 steel?
C45 (material number 1.0503) is a medium-carbon non-alloy steel to EN 10083-2, with 0.42–0.50% carbon. It is used for machined parts that need more strength and wear resistance than mild steel.
02What are the equivalents of C45?
Common equivalents are SAE/AISI 1042–1045, JIS S45C and BS 970 070M46 (as listed in the comparison table). They are similar but not identical, so order the grade your drawing names.
03Is C45 rust proof?
No. C45 is a carbon steel and rusts like other carbon steels. Protect it with oil, paint or plating, or choose a stainless or weathering steel for corrosion resistance.
04Which delivery condition should I order?
Order as rolled, normalized or annealed if you will heat-treat after machining; order quenched and tempered (+QT) if the part will be used without further heat treatment.
05Can C45 be hardened?
Yes, by quenching and tempering, or by flame or induction surface hardening. Its hardenability is limited, so thick sections do not harden through; for those, consider EN19 / 42CrMo4.
06Can C45 be welded?
It can, but its carbon content needs preheat and controlled cooling to avoid cracking. It is not intended as a structural welding grade.
07Do you supply C35 and C40 as well?
Yes, C35, C35K and C40 can also be supplied. Name the grade, standard and condition on your enquiry.
08Can C45 plate be cut to size?
Yes. Plates can be cut to size and shape to your drawings. Send the drawing, thickness, quantities, tolerances and machining allowance.
09Which certificates should my RFQ request?
Request an EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2 certificate showing chemistry, delivery condition and mechanical or hardness results, plus heat traceability and any ultrasonic test.
10How do I obtain a price and delivery offer?
Send the grade, delivery condition, dimensions, quantity, cutting needs, documents, destination and required date.
