Wrought iron is an iron alloy with a very low carbon (0.04 to 0.08%) content in contrast to cast iron (2.1% to 4%).

This answer is wrong according to Wikipedia. The correct one is 0.08 % which isn't mentioned in the options.

What is the answer of max Carbon content allowed in mild steel, to be used in sheet metal for construction?

Surendra dangi said:   7 years ago
High carbon steel =0.8 -1.5.
Medium (high tensile)=0.3-0.8.
Mild =0.15-0.3.
Dead mild= less 0.15.

W.I - 0.1 to 1.25%.
Mild steel - less than 0.25.
