The machinability of AISI 1010 carbon steel, especially in the cold drawn or cold worked state, is considered as fairly good.
FORMING
AISI 1010 carbon steel has good formability and ductility, and can be easily formed using conventional methods.
WELDING
AISI 1010 carbon steel can be welded using all the conventional welding techniques.
HEAT TREATMENT
AISI 1010 carbon steel is mostly used in the annealed or case hardened condition. However, it can also be heat treated, quenched and tempered but the cost for performing these processes are very high.
FORGING
Forging can be performed on AISI 1010 carbon steel between 1260 and 982°C (2300 and 1800°F).
HOT WORKING
The hot working capacity of AISI 1010 carbon steel is between the ranges of 482 to 93°C (900 to 200°F).
