- 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 improves its dimensional accuracy, straightness, and surface finish while increasing its strength and hardness. This versatile material, conforming to ASTM A108, offers a reliable combination of toughness, ductility, and excellent machinability (70% of 1212 steel). It is also readily weldable using standard practices, making it a dependable choice for a wide range of fabricated parts.
As a medium-diameter bar, this 11/16" size is perfectly suited for general machine parts where precision and strength are required. Common applications include medium-duty shafts, axles, bushings, spacers, and custom machined components for industrial equipment, automotive assemblies, and hydraulic systems.
