Below is a table comparing AISI 1008, AISI 1010, AISI 1040, AISI 1045, AISI 1070, and AISI 1080 steels across Carbon Content, Strength, Ductility, Weldability, Applications, and Heat Treatment. The data is derived from standard metallurgical references and tailored to align with metal stamping contexts, such as those described on https://metalstampingatlas.com/processes.
This table reflects the steels’ suitability for metal stamping applications, emphasizing formability for low-carbon steels and strength for high-carbon steels.
