Solid Round Rod 1m x 5mm - Drawn Steel

Product Information

For rods that are more than two inches in diameter we offer grade 303. This is the most machinable austenitic grade of stainless steel because it has a slightly higher proportion of sulphur. It is commonly used for aircrafts, nuts, screws and bolts.

Similar products in our steel range include steel tubes, stainless steel angle, stainless steel square bar, stainless steel rectangular tube and stainless steel flat bars.The terms steel rod and bar are often used interchangeably. However, there is a slight difference in their physical structure. Bear in mind however that either version can be used for the same construction job.

Our iron grade 43a steel round bar is suitable for a huge range of uses, particularly construction due to its brilliant strength and formability properties. It is a favoured material for building frames and reliable structures and garden plant supports as seen on Gardener's World. Hardness - Silver steel in an annealed state usually has a lower hardness and is designed to be hardened once the tool has been forged. Used to make a wide variety of industrial and domestic equipment, silver steel is a strong and versatile alloy. High in carbon content, with added chromium, it produces durable and strong tools. In the hands of a gifted machinist, intricate designs can be achieved for objects such as tools for engraving, as well as instrument, and model parts. During the manufacturing process, a stainless steel round bar will go through several processes and additions that can alter its chemical composition. The end products vary depending on the chemical makeup within their structure. Manufactured to BS 1407:1970 standards, silver steel's high carbon content allows the metal to be hardened to create higher wear-resistant tools. The addition of chromium into the mix enhances this durability and adds strength.

Quality Assured

Available in different forms these products can be split out into different types due to the nature of their makeup. A stainless steel rod, or stainless steel bar, is commonly used in construction because of its durability and resistance to rusting. As seen on Gardener's World - perfect for make your own plant supports.

A high-quality stainless steel round bar has incredible toughness and strength, especially for construction purposes. They are incredibly rigid and can support several tons of weight. Therefore, whether you're looking for a 3mm steel rod or a 6mm stainless steel rod , the internal composition determines the best application for it. Below are the various types of steel bars and features that make them unique. We want to make it easy for you, so here are some key terms that will help you understand the range and applications a little better For instance, you’ll find a stainless steel pole in use during the erection of elaborate buildings. They also feature in household fixtures and food-grade utensils. Hexagonal Bar– More commonly known as a Hex bar, the hexagonal bar is a length of six-sided bar with its diameter measured across two opposing flat faces. This unit of measure is referred to as AC for Across Flats.Stainless steel rod round bar with titanium in their chemical makeup tend to be the strongest. What is Steel Rod? We are also a recognised metal supplier for our comprehensive range of aluminium products and would recommend comparing these metal rods with aluminium rod, aluminium round tubes, aluminium flat bar and aluminium square tubes. A steel rod offers a wide variety of applications. They are highly versatile due to their high resistance to weather extremities and other external factors. These hard metal bars are prevalent in our environment. But just how familiar are you with the properties and applications of a steel bar? In short, no. When welded, silver steel goes brittle. A good alternative is to braze it using silver solder. Metal bars are lengths of material in a range of forms suitable for use in a wide range of applications. Construction and fabrication industries are some of the most common uses for metal bars and use a wide range of materials and forms in industrial and everyday use products.

stainless steel: With bar 316l , the number indicates it’s suitable for chemical work and good for use in laboratories. The “L” signifies it’s great for welding.

Also available in a range of materials, our range of metal bars and rods can accommodate any application. Our bars and rods can be found in: Used in the forging of tools, including shafts and axels, taps and drills, silver steel is regularly used in tool rooms and general engineering applications. However, with great power comes great weight. A steel bar may be very heavy and will require powerful machinery to carry it. BS 1407:1970 outlines safety requirements during the manufacturing process, composition, and finish, as well as the tolerances between lengths and sizes. Tensile strength - The tensile strength of the silver steel will determine how easy the material is to forge and how robust the end product will be when it has been manipulated from the silver steel. Silver steel with a low tensile stress is designed to break when under extreme stress and being pulled.
