Low-carbon structural steel stocked in large sizes for fabrication, machine bases and general engineering.
Mild Steel is a low-carbon structural steel — the default material for anything that needs to be welded, fabricated or machined without special heat treatment. It isn't a specialty tool steel; it's the general engineering steel that goes into brackets, frames, machine bases and structural work across every industry we supply.
Its value is straightforward: it welds cleanly, machines easily, and costs a fraction of an alloy tool steel — so it's the right call whenever a job doesn't need hardness or wear resistance, just strength and workability.
We stock MS in large plate and block sizes and cut it to the exact dimensions a fabricator or machine shop needs.
