DESCRIPTION

The 1/2″ x 3-1/2″ Steel Flat Bar CF-1018 is manufactured from cold-finished 1018 low-carbon steel and produced for machining, fabrication, and structural applications requiring tight tolerances and a smooth surface finish. The flat bar features a rectangular profile with a 1/2″ thickness and 3-1/2″ width, providing excellent strength, weldability, and machinability for industrial and general-purpose use. Cold-finished 1018 steel offers improved dimensional accuracy and surface quality compared to hot-rolled steel, making it ideal for precision fabrication and mechanical components.

Applications:
Steel Flat Bar CF-1018 is commonly used in structural, mechanical, and industrial applications, including:
• Structural supports, brackets, and reinforcement plates
• Machine parts, fixtures, and tooling components
• Fabrication, welding, and custom metalwork
• Base plates, frames, and equipment supports
• Agricultural, automotive, and industrial repairs
• General construction and manufacturing applications

Advantages:
• Smooth cold-finished surface: Provides improved appearance and tighter dimensional tolerances
• Excellent machinability: Ideal for drilling, milling, cutting, and fabrication
• Good weldability: Easily welded using common welding methods
• Strong and durable: Suitable for structural and load-bearing applications
• Versatile design: Can be cut, drilled, and fabricated for custom applications
• Consistent material properties: Reliable performance for industrial and mechanical use

Summary:
The 1/2″ x 3-1/2″ Steel Flat Bar CF-1018 is a durable, versatile cold-finished steel product designed for fabrication, machining, and structural applications. Its smooth finish, excellent machinability, and reliable strength make it an excellent choice for industrial, construction, and general-purpose metalworking projects.

* Prices subject to change without notice due to the Metals Market fluctuations. | All ‘value length’ and ‘value pack’ item measurements are subject to a “mill tolerance”. | A product may be produced several thousandths of an inch, either over or under the stated thickness, and still be within “mill tolerance”. Since we cut the material specifically for your order, they follow these tolerances: Length: +0.125″ / -0.062” – Please note that during cutting, the blade removes about 1/16″ of material (kerf). This is a normal part of the process and is already considered within the stated tolerances.
