1018 Steel Hex Bar
1018 Steel Hex Bar
1018 Steel Hex Bar is a cold-rolled or cold-finished hexagonal-shaped steel bar having closer tolerances and dimensional accuracy. The cold drawing process increases the tensile and yield strength of the metal. It has good workability and can be easily bent, formed, crimped, drilled, punched, and fabricated. Due to its properties, it is considered suitable for a wide variety of applications such as
- Pins
- Machine parts
- Fasteners
- Structural components
- Ratchets
- Gears
- Worms
- Pinions
- Mounting plates
- Tools holder
- Shafting
- Fittings and fixtures etc.
Metalsnet has extensive stocks of 1018 Cold Finished Hex Bar available in different sizes ready to be shipped. We ensure delivery of good quality products.
