Starrett 54892 Low Carbon Steel Flat Stock 24x8x3/32 in

Product Description

The STARRETT 54892 is a low carbon steel flat stock bar measuring 24 inches long, 8 inches wide, and 3/32 inch thick. Manufactured to Type C1010 material specification, this flat stock delivers consistent dimensional accuracy with tightly controlled tolerances: plus or minus 0.001 inch on thickness and squareness, plus 0.000 to 0.005 inch on width, and plus 0.625 inch on length. At 5.06 pounds per piece, it is well suited for fabrication, repair, and tooling applications where predictable carbon steel stock is required. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians work with this material for layout, shimming, brackets, and custom part fabrication.

This flat stock is appropriate for general industrial and trade applications where low carbon steel stock is specified. Type C1010 steel offers good machinability and weldability, making it a practical choice for light structural fabrications, repair components, and custom metalwork in shop and field environments. It is sold as individual pieces and is suitable for both bench and machine shop use.
