Advantages of Carbon Steel compared to other Metals. 1) Faster heating effect. For kitchen use this is especially important as it saves time and reduces the amount of energy used. Stainless Steel, on the other hand, is known to be a poor conductor of heat.
The following is a range of improved properties in alloy steels (as compared to carbon steels): strength, hardness, toughness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, hardenability, and hot hardness. To achieve some of these improved properties the metal may require heat treating.
