SAE 1018/AISI 1018 CARBON STEEL

SAE 1018/AISI 1018 Carbon Steel manufacturers and suppliers,delivered in round rods,square/flat bars,rollers,shafts,blocks and forging pieces.

SAE 1018/AISI 1018 Carbon Steel is a low carbon steel which is characterized by good weldability, good machinability, high strength and impact properties in either the normalized or hot forged condition. SAE 1018/AISI 1018 steel is widely used for  screw machine parts, shafts, pins, spindles and rods.
