- 1018 Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A108 Certified
- 63,800 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability
1018 cold rolled round is a low-carbon steel bar produced through a cold drawing process, resulting in a smooth, scale-free surface and superior dimensional accuracy. This process strain-hardens the steel, increasing its tensile strength to 63,800 PSI. Conforming to ASTM A108, its composition provides a reliable balance of toughness, strength, and ductility, making it a highly versatile material for precision fabrication.
As a medium-diameter bar, this 1-1/2" size is perfectly suited for manufacturing machinery shafts, automotive axles, hydraulic piston rods, and heavy-duty industrial fasteners where strength, straightness, and a quality surface finish are critical for performance and assembly.
