This 1/4" x 1" 1018 Cold Rolled Steel Flat Bar offers superior surface finish and dimensional accuracy compared to hot rolled alternatives. Certified to ASTM A108, it provides a 63,800 PSI tensile strength, good weldability, and excellent machinability for general fabrication. In stock Los Angeles.
- 1018 Steel Construction
- ASTM A108 Certified
- 63,800 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability
1018 is a low-carbon steel manufactured through a cold drawing process, which increases its strength and hardness while creating a smooth, scale-free surface. Conforming to ASTM A108, it delivers a reliable balance of strength, ductility, and toughness. Its composition makes it easily weldable using common methods and suitable for case hardening, where a hard surface is created over a ductile core.
As a medium-sized flat bar, this 1" width is ideal for applications requiring more substance than smaller straps but still manageable for general fabrication. Common uses include structural bracing, machine ways where components slide, wear strips on equipment, and mounting plates that require precise, flat surfaces for assembly.
