Cast Steel

Cast steel is the alloy with carbon having the carbon content of 1.7%. Having the properties better than cast iron. Any complicated shapes are made in one part. Shapes that have been formed directly from liquid by casting into a mold. Formerly applied to wrought objects produced by working steel made by the crucible process to distinguish from that made by cementation of wrought-iron, but both of these methods are long obsolete.
