1017 steel is a low-carbon, mild steel known for its excellent formability, weldability, and relatively high strength. It contains approximately 0.17% carbon, which makes it ductile and easy to work with, yet strong enough for many construction and manufacturing applications. This steel is often used to manufacture parts that require bending or welding, such as mounting brackets, fixtures, and other structural components. Its combination of strength and ductility also makes it suitable for making parts like bolts, screws, and other fasteners.
