1541 steel is a medium-carbon alloy known for its strength and hardness, primarily due to its higher manganese content. It’s commonly used to manufacture components such as axles, bolts, and other fasteners, which require strong wear and deformation resistance under heavy loads, toughness, and high tensile strength. Its excellent hardenability is also ideal for parts subjected to critical stress levels in automotive and machinery applications.
