Steels are primarily classified by their A. Carbon content. The carbon content significantly affects the properties and mechanical characteristics of the steel, leading to different classifications such as low carbon steel, medium carbon steel, and high carbon steel. Other factors, such as alloying elements and uses, also contribute to steel classification, but carbon content remains a fundamental categorization criterion.
