- 1018 Steel Construction
- ASTM A108 Certified
- 63,800 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability
1018 Cold Rolled Flat Bar is a low-carbon steel produced through a cold drawing process, resulting in a smooth, scale-free surface and tight dimensional tolerances. It conforms to ASTM A108 and offers a balance of strength, ductility, and toughness with 63,800 PSI tensile strength. Its excellent machinability and good weldability make it a versatile choice for general manufacturing.
As a medium-width 3-inch bar, this size is well-suited for applications requiring more substantial support than smaller straps. Common uses include structural bracing, base plates for medium-sized equipment, machine ways, wear strips, and custom brackets where stiffness and a clean finish are important.
