Latham Steel is a proud fixture of Hamilton’s industrial landscape, forging quality and reliability into every product. As a local manufacturer and supplier, we’ve built our reputation on a foundation of hands-on expertise and a commitment to supporting New Zealand’s essential industries. We understand the demanding environments our clients operate in, which is why our carbon steel forgings are crafted with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring they deliver the strength and durability needed to keep critical projects moving forward, right from the heart of the Waikato.
These forgings begin as carefully melted carbon steel, whose composition is primarily iron and carbon, with trace amounts of other elements like manganese. This straightforward yet powerful combination is precisely controlled to achieve specific mechanical properties. The result is a material known for its exceptional toughness and high tensile strength, offering reliable resistance to impact and fatigue. This inherent durability makes it a trusted choice for components that must withstand significant stress and demanding load conditions over their entire service life.
| Grades Of Carbon Steel | Temperature Range Of Forging |
|---|---|
| Medium Carbon Steel | (2,000°F to 2,200°F) 1,100°C to 1,200°C |
| Low Carbon Steel | (2,000°F to 2,200°F) 1,100°C to 1,200°C |
| High Carbon Steel | (1,800°F to 2,200°F) 1,000°C to 1,200°C |
