- 1018 Cold Rolled Steel Construction
- ASTM A108 Certified
- 63,800 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability
1018 is a low-carbon steel known for its reliable case-hardening properties and superior surface finish compared to hot rolled alternatives. The cold drawing process increases its strength and hardness while maintaining precise dimensional accuracy per ASTM A108. This makes it a dependable material for components requiring a precise fit in assemblies without extensive secondary processing.
As a medium-width bar, this 1-1/2" wide profile is frequently used for structural bracing, machine ways, wear strips, and base plates where a combination of good strength, flatness, and a machinable surface is essential for performance and durability.
