Hi. im the guy who bought one of these anvils. The actual spectrometer results are 99.58 iron, 0.41 manganeze . The Leco carbon determinator test came out to be 0.228 carbon. These results were double checked.
500 Lb Anvil ???
in Anvils, Swage Blocks, and Mandrels

hi, thanks for pointing out the error. i asked the senior lab tech to do it this time and he came up with 99.362 fe, 0.41 mn, .228 c
i actually bought a "280" not the 500. i weighed it on two different scales and it came out to be 251. i for one am on fire to know who cast these anvils and why such low carbon steel was used.
