not 2-2 1/2 times.
Plain carbon steel (1010) will have a tensile strength, when normalized and tempered, in the 65-70K range, yield in the 35-40K range. Typical 1018 (Approximates WCB will be 70-36.
8620 (.20C, Ni Cr Mo) will be in the 90K tensile, 60K yield range. 8635 (.35C) will be minimum 105K Tensile, 85K yield.
