2″ x 8″ Steel Flat Bar 1018 Cold Finished (CF) is a heavy-duty precision mild steel flat bar designed for machining, tooling, manufacturing, and industrial fabrication applications. Manufactured from AISI 1018 cold-finished steel, this material offers excellent dimensional accuracy, good strength, outstanding machinability, and a smooth, clean surface finish.
With a substantial 2″ thickness and 8″ width, this 1018 flat bar provides excellent rigidity and a large cross-sectional area for demanding machined components, tooling, equipment parts, and heavy fabrication projects. The cold-finished manufacturing process provides tighter dimensional tolerances, improved straightness, and a smoother surface compared with typical hot-rolled steel.
AISI 1018 steel is a versatile low-carbon steel known for its excellent machinability and weldability. It can be readily cut, drilled, milled, turned, welded, and fabricated, making it a dependable material for both precision manufacturing and general industrial applications.
This 2″ x 8″ 1018 cold-finished steel flat bar is available in multiple lengths with cut-to-size options, allowing you to order the material needed for your specific project.
