This cold-drawn flat stock is held to tight dimensional tolerances, including a thickness and square tolerance of plus or minus 0.001 inches and a width tolerance of plus 0.000 to 0.005 inches. The length tolerance is plus 0.625 inches. Weighing 5.21 pounds per piece, it is suited for fabrication, machining, and general metalworking applications where consistent cross-section and material composition are required. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance trades rely on C1018 flat stock for its predictable machinability and weldability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAISI C1018 low carbon steel flat stock is used across a wide range of industrial and trade applications, including fabrication of brackets, supports, guides, spacers, and custom mechanical components. This bar stock is appropriate for shops and field fabrication where parts are cut to length, drilled, milled, or welded. The consistent 0.875-inch square profile makes it straightforward to lay out and machine without secondary squaring operations. It is commonly used in HVAC equipment fabrication, mechanical rooms, and general facility maintenance where custom steel components are needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAISI Type C1018 low carbon steel for reliable machinability and weldability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare profile: 0.875 inches wide by 0.875 inches thick\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOverall length: 24 inches with a plus 0.625-inch length tolerance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTight width tolerance: plus 0.000 to 0.005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThickness and square tolerance held to plus or minus 0.001 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShips as a single piece; minimum order quantity of 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose flat bar stock for use in fabrication and machining applications requiring AISI C1018 low carbon steel in a 0.875 by 0.875-inch square profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCutting, drilling, or welding this flat stock should be performed by qualified machinists or fabricators using appropriate personal protective equipment and tooling rated for steel.
