Steel Round Rod

1018 is a general purpose, low carbon steel, also known as "mild steel". C1018 has good case hardening properties and excellent machinability. Suitable for shafting and for other applications that do not require the greater strength of an alloy steel...

1117 carbon steel is a re-sulfurized steel with good machinability and surface finish and superior case hardening characteristics. Material: Steel Shape: Round Rod Alloy: 1117 Temper: CD Diameter: 1.250 (1-1/4 inch) Finish: Cold Finished Specifications:...

These rods are precision ground and held to a strict diameter and straightness tolerance. Often called Stressproof, they are stress-relieved to minimize warping during machining. Contains higher amounts of carbon and manganese than other easy-to-machine...

1215 is considered a free machining steel, having excellent machinability due to its added sulfur, phosphorus. It's also ideal for parts that require heavy machining and bright finishes. Due to its low carbon, this material has lower strength than other...
