1080 steel, a high-carbon steel grade, is renowned for its high strength and hardness after heat treatment. This makes it ideal for applications where durability and wear resistance are crucial, including agricultural implements, chisels, springs, and saw blades. However, due to its hardness and strength, 1080 steel is less suitable for welding applications.
