| Steel Steel is a metal alloy whose major component is iron, with carbon content between 0.02% and 1.7% by weight. Carbon and other elements act as a hardening agents, preventing dislocations in the iron atom crystal lattice from sliding past one another. Varying the amount of alloying elements and their distribution in the steel controls qualities such as the hardness, elasticity, ductility, and tensile strength.
