Starrett 54883 Low Carbon Steel Flat Stock 3/32x1x24 in

Product Description

The STARRETT 54883 is a Type C1010 low carbon steel flat stock bar measuring 3/32 inch thick, 1 inch wide, and 24 inches long. It is manufactured to close dimensional tolerances, making it suitable for layout work, fabrication, and machining applications where consistent stock dimensions are required. Thickness and square tolerances are held to +/- 0.001 inch, while width tolerance is held to +0.000 / -0.005 inch and length tolerance is +0.625 inch. Machinists, fabricators, and tool-and-die professionals typically work with this type of flat stock in both shop and field settings.

This flat stock is suited for general metalworking and fabrication applications in manufacturing, maintenance, and repair environments. C1010 low carbon steel offers good machinability and weldability, making it a practical choice for brackets, shims, spacers, straps, and custom-fabricated components. It is sold individually and is appropriate wherever a precisely dimensioned mild steel bar is needed as raw material or a finished workpiece.
