Steel CF-1018 flat bar is manufactured from low-carbon 1018 steel and produced to industry standard ASTM A36 / SAE J403 specifications for general structural and fabrication use. The 1″ x 8″ flat bar features a cold finished surface, providing improved dimensional accuracy, tighter tolerances, and a smoother finish compared to hot rolled steel. CF-1018 offers good weldability, machinability, and strength, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial, mechanical, and construction applications where precision and reliability are required.
Applications:
Steel CF-1018 flat bar is commonly used in structural, mechanical, and fabrication applications, including:
• Brackets, supports, and structural reinforcement
• Machine parts and equipment fabrication
• Base plates and mounting components
• Welding and custom metal fabrication projects
• Automotive and industrial repair work
• General construction and maintenance applications
Advantages:
• Good machinability: 1018 steel is easy to cut, drill, and machine
• Strong weldability: Suitable for most standard welding processes
• Smooth finish: Cold finished surface improves appearance and accuracy
• Cost-effective: Economical material for structural and fabrication use
• Versatile use: Can be cut, shaped, and modified for custom applications
Summary:
The 1″ x 8″ CF-1018 cold finished steel flat bar is a durable and versatile carbon steel product designed for structural, fabrication, and mechanical applications. Its combination of strength, machinability, and smooth finish makes it an ideal choice for industrial projects requiring precision and reliable performance.
