■ Chemical Composition

Element% Composition
Carbon0.36-0.44%
Manganese0.60-1.00%
Silicon0.10-0.40%
Phosphorus0.050% max
Sulfur0.050% max

EN8 steel typically contains around 0.40 percent carbon, which provides improved strength compared to mild steel. The controlled carbon and manganese content offers a balanced combination of strength, ductility, and machinability, making EN8 suitable for general engineering use.
