Alloy steel and carbon steel differ primarily in their composition. Iron and carbon make up carbon steel, usually with a carbon content that ranges from 0.05% to 2.5%. In contrast, alloy steel includes chromium, nickel, and manganese to alter their physical and mechanical characteristics. These elements can enhance attributes like strength, hardness, heat, or corrosion resistance, making alloy steel versatile for various applications.
