Value Collection .125X.75X72 1018 Cold Finished Steel Bar

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION .125X.75X72 is a 1018 cold finished steel flat bar measuring 0.125 inches thick, 0.75 inches wide, and 72 inches long (6 feet). Cold finishing produces tighter dimensional tolerances, a smoother surface finish, and improved straightness compared to hot rolled bar stock. The 1018 grade offers a good balance of strength and machinability, making it a practical choice for fabrication, structural supports, brackets, and general metalworking applications. The bar weighs approximately 1.92 pounds. Sold as a single piece, this bar is ready for cutting, drilling, welding, or bending in the shop or field.

This flat bar is suited for light fabrication and general industrial use where tight tolerances and a clean surface finish matter. Common applications include machine parts, frame components, braces, straps, and filler pieces. Its 1018 composition is weldable and responds well to standard machining operations. The 6-foot length provides useful stock for a wide range of custom cuts. Fabricators, millwrights, and maintenance technicians regularly work with this profile in both commercial and industrial settings.
