Starrett 54875 Low Carbon Steel Flat Stock 24x4x0.0625in

Product Description

The STARRETT 54875 is a Type C1010 low carbon steel flat stock bar used in fabrication, maintenance, and toolmaking applications. Cut to 24 inches long, 4 inches wide, and 0.0625 inches thick, this piece provides a ready-to-use blank for layout work, shim stock, strapping, brackets, and general machined or hand-fitted components. C1010 low carbon steel offers good formability and weldability with moderate strength, making it well suited for parts that require bending, drilling, or light machining. Machinists, fabricators, millwrights, and maintenance technicians commonly keep flat stock on hand for repair and custom component work. Weight is 1.7 pounds per piece.

This flat stock is appropriate for light structural, fabrication, and repair tasks in industrial, commercial, and maintenance shop environments. The 4-inch width and 24-inch length make it practical for bracket blanks, wear plates, shim applications, and custom spacers. The 0.0625-inch thickness is thin enough for forming and bending while still providing rigidity for structural strip applications. It is sold individually and is intended for professional trade and shop use where controlled tolerances are required.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose C1010 low carbon steel flat stock blank suitable for fabrication, repair, and maintenance applications where standard flat bar stock is specified.

Installation Notes

Cutting, drilling, or forming should be performed by qualified fabricators or machinists using appropriate tooling for low carbon steel. Wear proper PPE including eye protection and gloves when cutting or grinding. Deburr all cut edges before fitting or handling. Follow applicable facility safety procedures and relevant standards when incorporating this material into structural or mechanical assemblies.
