Starrett 55015 Low Carbon Steel Flat Stock 24x9x0.625 in

Product Description

The STARRETT 55015 is a low carbon steel flat stock bar cut to 24 inches long, 9 inches wide, and 0.625 inches thick. It is manufactured to AISI Type C1018 material specification, a widely used low carbon steel grade valued for its machinability, weldability, and consistent mechanical properties. This flat stock is suited for fabrication, maintenance, and repair work in industrial, commercial, and trade environments. Tolerances are tightly controlled: length holds to plus 0.625 inches, width to plus 0.000 to 0.005 inches, and both thickness and squareness to plus or minus 0.001 inches. The part ships as a single piece.

AISI C1018 low carbon steel flat bar is a standard raw material used across metal fabrication shops, HVAC structural support applications, plumbing equipment pads, electrical enclosure fabrication, and general mechanical construction. Its predictable tolerances make it suitable for layouts requiring close-fitting components, custom brackets, wear plates, and structural supports where precision cutting and drilling are part of the workflow.
