Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-000651

An abbreviation for Basic Metal Steel, a category of carbon steels that are not alloyed with other elements to achieve special properties. These steels are defined primarily by their carbon content and are used for general structural and engineering purposes where high strength or corrosion resistance are not primary requirements. BMS grades are specified in standards like the British Standard BS 970, which classifies them based on machinability and tensile strength.
