Carbon steel is one of the most widely used materials for industrial blades thanks to its cost-effectiveness, sharpness, and versatility. These blades are known for their ability to hold a fine edge, making them suitable for a wide range of cutting, scraping, and trimming tasks.

While carbon steel blades provide excellent sharpness, they have lower corrosion resistance compared to stainless steel or tungsten carbide. This makes them best suited for dry cutting applications or environments where blades are replaced frequently.

Applications include:

• Single edge razor blades for scraping and trimming

• Industrial scrapers and utility blades

• General-purpose cutting in packaging, converting, and maintenance

Carbon steel blades are the practical and economical choice when frequent blade changes are acceptable and high sharpness is required at a competitive cost.
