- 1018 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 superior surface finish. It complies with ASTM A108 standards and offers a good balance of strength, ductility, and toughness. With its 70% machinability rating, it is easily welded and machined, making it a versatile choice for general fabrication and carburized parts.
As a medium-width bar, this 3" x 3/8" size is perfectly suited for applications requiring substantial support without excessive weight. It is commonly used for structural bracing, machine ways, wear strips, and mounting plates where flatness and dimensional accuracy are critical for proper assembly.
