sae 1010 chemical composition carbon steels, such as 1010, are used for applications such as cold headed fasteners and bolts SAE 1010 hardness is a carbon steel expressed for major starting into wrought products. It has a very great electrical conductivity among shaped carbon or non-alloy steels. In addition, low current conductivity and can have a justly low ductile strength.Bhalla fasteners is the leading manufacturer,supplier and exporter of sae 1010 chemical composition standard fasteners in India and supply to USA,UK,Germany,France,Italy,Latvia.
1008 grade allows any carbon range from 0 to 0.10 percent, but the 1010 grade requires a minimum carbon of 0.08 percent and a maximum carbon of 0.13 percent.
sae 1010 steel chemical composition is a plain carbon steel with a nominal 0.10% carbon content. Normally it is of low strength steel but to increase its stength it can be quenched and tempered

Machinability
The machinability of ms 1010 chemical composition, especially in the cold drawn or cold worked state, is considered as fairly good.
Forming
aisi 1010 chemical composition has good ductility and formability, and can be easily formed using conventional methods.
Welding
aisi 1010 chemical composition can be welded using all the conventional welding techniques.
Heat treatment
sae 1010 steel chemical composition is mostly used in the annealed or case hardened condition. However, it can also be heat treated, quenched and tempered but the cost for performing these processes are very high.
Forging
Forging can be performed on sae 1010 chemical composition fasteners between 1260 and 982°C (2300 and 1800°F).
Hot Working
The hot working capacity of sae 1010 chemical compositionis between the ranges of 482 to 93°C (900 to 200°F).
Cold Working
The cold working capacity of AISI 1010 carbon steel is good. In cases where severe cold working is performed stress relief or full anneal has to be performed.
Annealing
A full anneal process can be performed for sae 1010 chemical composition at 871 to 982°C (1600 to 1800°F), which is followed by slow cooling process in the furnace. A stress relief anneal process can also be done at 538°C (1000°F) and then gradually cooled. AISI 1010 carbon steel in the full annealed condition has a tensile strength of about 45 ksi.
Tempering
Tempering can be performed on sae 1010 chemical composition after hardening process is completed, at 316 to 593°C (600 to 1100°F). This depends upon the strength level that is required. When tempering is performed at 538°C (1000 F), the tensile strength will be about 75 ksi.
Hardening
sae 1010 chemical composition standard can be hardened by both cold working and heat treatment.
Applications
sae 1010 chemical composition is primarily used for applications such as cold headed fasteners, washers ,bolts, flanges, rivets and bushes.
