- 1018 Cold Rolled Steel Construction
- ASTM A108 Certified
- 63,800 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability
1018 is a low-carbon steel manufactured through cold drawing, a process that increases its strength and hardness while creating a smooth, scale-free surface. This bar conforms to ASTM A108, offering excellent weldability and machinability (70% of 1212 steel). It is a top choice for parts requiring case hardening, as it develops a hard surface while maintaining a tough, ductile core.
As a medium-sized flat bar, this 1-3/4" width is perfectly suited for structural bracing, machine ways, wear strips, and base plates. Its dimensional stability and flat profile provide a reliable foundation for machined components and fabricated assemblies where precision is critical.
