1018 Cold Rolled Flat Bar - 3/8" x 1/2"
A 3/8" x 1/2" 1018 Cold Rolled Steel Flat Bar offering excellent machinability and a clean surface finish. Meeting ASTM A108 specifications, it provides a balance of strength, ductility, and weldability ideal for precision fabrication and general-purpose parts. In stock Los Angeles.
- 1018 Cold Rolled Steel Construction
- ASTM A108 Certified
- 63,800 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability
Cold Rolled 1018 Steel is a low-carbon grade manufactured through a cold drawing process, resulting in superior dimensional accuracy and a smooth, scale-free surface. It conforms to ASTM A108 and provides a good balance of strength (63,800 PSI tensile), ductility, and toughness. This material is easily machined and welded, making it a reliable choice for parts requiring case-hardening or a clean finish.
This bar's small 1/2" x 3/8" cross-section is perfectly suited for applications requiring precision and moderate strength in a compact form. It is commonly used for fabricating custom brackets, support straps, keyways, shims, and small, non-critical machine components where a clean aesthetic and tight tolerances are essential.
