The difference is subtle: both are mixed with other metals, mainly carbon, but alloy steel is a mixture of carbon and other metals. Common additives beyond carbon include magnesium, nickel, and chromium. PROPERTIES OF CARBON STEEL In this steel alloy, carbon is the main added element. It comes in three categories; low, medium, and high carbon. Low carbon steels are incredibly pliable, easy to work with, and cost-effective. Medium carbon steel offers more strength and can be cast into various shapes. High carbon steels are considered more durable and wear-resistant of the grades.
