SAE 1020 is a low-carbon steel alloy characterized by low hardness and tensile strength with a typical Brinell hardness of 119 -235 and tensile strength of 410 Mpa -790 Mpa. Even with these reduced values, the SAE 1020 Steel Tube has the most crucial industrial benefits such as high ductility, machinability, and high weldability although the low carbon content renders it immune to induction or flame hardening. The material is mainly iron and carbon with small quantities of manganese, phosphorus and sulfur, the chemistry of the material is confirmed through heat analysis in ASTM A519 specifications. Although such low-alloyed seamless tubings are typically nitriding insensitive in their normal form, when the alloy is treated to carburizing, it is possible to produce surface hardness in excess of Rc65 without reducing the strength of cold-drawn tubing in the core. Available in hot-finished or cold-finished conditions and produced through strand or ingot casting, ASTM A519 Grade 1020 Steel Pipe is a staple in automated sectors and mechanical applications, where it is often oil-coated to enhance corrosion resistance.

Frequently Asked Questions About AISI 1020 Tubes & Pipes
What is AISI 1020 material?
AISI 1020 is a common type of plain carbon steel. It provides a good balance of strength and flexibility and can be hardened using processes like carburizing.
What is the equivalent grade of AISI 1020?
AISI 1020 equivalent materials include SAE 1020, ASTM A36, AISI 1018, and international grades like EN3B or S20C. These are similar low-carbon steels used in general manufacturing, offering good workability and weldability.
What is the difference between AISI 1018 and 1020?
1020 steel is typically used for general parts like construction structures and mechanical components due to its balanced strength. 1018 steel is used for applications requiring higher strength and toughness, such as gears, shafts, and fasteners.
How much carbon is in AISI 1020 steel?
AISI 1020 is a low-carbon steel, containing only 0.17% – 0.23% carbon. This low carbon content gives the steel its notable ductility, malleability, and ease of welding.
