- 1018 Cold Rolled Steel Construction
- ASTM A108 Certified
- 63,800 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability
1018 is a low-carbon steel known for its excellent case-hardening properties and superior surface finish compared to hot rolled alternatives. The cold drawing process increases its strength and hardness while maintaining tight dimensional accuracy, conforming to ASTM A108. This provides a reliable material for applications requiring precision without extensive secondary processing, ensuring components fit correctly in assemblies.
As a medium-width bar, this 1-1/2" x 1/2" size is frequently used for structural bracing, machine ways, wear strips, and mounting plates where a combination of moderate strength and a clean finish is required.
