33 Max is carbon plate that has up to .33 carbon and is commonly used in counterweighting and load testing.
33 Max is commercial quality, hot rolled carbon plate that is frequently used for counterweighting and load testing. It is readily formed and welded with all conventional methods, but it is not always advised because of its potentially unknown composition.
It is a carbon steel that is useful wherever projects require a good ratio of weight to size. It is not appropriate for projects requiring specific mechanical properties.
Sometimes called M33 Steel, is used in a number of industries, especially elevator manufacturing, agricultural equipment, and heavy machinery.
It is most commonly used for:
While it can be machined, we do not advise it unless the composition is known.
While it can be formed and welded, we do not advise it unless the composition is known.

ANSWER:
It is not appropriate for projects requiring specific mechanical properties. It is typically used in applications requiring heavy weight at high value, where its tensile strength is irrelevant.
ANSWER:
It is commercial grade carbon steel with a maximum specification of .33 carbon. Otherwise, its chemical composition is irrelevant to its typical end use of counterweighting and load testing.
