Carbon steel is sometimes referred to as 'mild steel'. Carbon steel makes up the largest part of steel production and is used in a vast range of applications.
Typically mild steels are stiff and strong. They also exhibit ferromagnetism (i.e. they are magnetic). This means they are extensively used in motors and electrical appliances.
