Will carbon steel rust?
Release time:

The surface treatment of carbon steel will also affect its rust resistance. The surface of unprotected carbon steel is susceptible to corrosion, while carbon steel that has been galvanized or otherwise protected can slow down the rate of rust.
Carbon steel contains iron, which makes it more susceptible to rust when exposed to moisture or water. However, compared to some other metals, such as stainless steel, carbon steel contains fewer alloying elements, making it less resistant to rust. The rust rate of carbon steel depends on the humidity and oxygen content of its surrounding environment. In a dry environment, the degree of rust of carbon steel will be lighter, while in a humid environment, the rust will be more severe. In addition, the surface treatment of carbon steel will also affect its rust resistance. The surface of unprotected carbon steel is susceptible to corrosion, while carbon steel that has been galvanized or other protective treatments can slow down the speed of rust.

The difference between steel coil and steel strip
The main differences between steel coils and steel strips are the width, purpose and processing methods. Steel coils are suitable for large-scale storage and transportation, as well as for a variety of subsequent processing, while steel strips are more suitable for the production of narrow and long steel plates to meet specific industrial needs.

Correct way to load steel coils
Horizontal loading: When the ratio of the width to the diameter of the steel coil is greater than 0.7, horizontal loading should be selected. Horizontal loading is divided into transverse loading and longitudinal loading. The specific method to be selected depends on the size of the steel coil and the transportation conditions.
