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.

We also can supply C35,C35K,C40,please contact us if you need.

Compare C45 Delivery Conditions Before Purchasing

ConditionWhat it givesTypical selection focus
As rolledLowest cost; properties vary with thicknessParts that will be heat-treated after machining
Normalized (+N)Uniform, refined structure and predictable machiningGeneral machined parts and blanks
AnnealedSoftest condition, easiest to machine and formHeavy machining before hardening
Quenched and tempered (+QT)Higher strength and toughness, ready to useShafts, 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

ApplicationCondition to evaluateSelection input

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.

RequirementWhat to identify in the order
Material certificateEN 10204 3.1 or 3.2, showing grade, chemistry, delivery condition and mechanical or hardness results
HardnessHardness range and test method, where your drawing sets one
Internal soundnessUltrasonic testing standard and class for thick plate, where required
Traceability and inspectionHeat 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

01

What 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.

02

What 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.

03

Is 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.

04

Which 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.

05

Can 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.

06

Can 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.

07

Do 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.

08

Can 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.

09

Which 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.

10

How do I obtain a price and delivery offer?

Send the grade, delivery condition, dimensions, quantity, cutting needs, documents, destination and required date.
