Value Collection .375X.75X36 1018 Steel Flat Bar

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION .375X.75X36 is a 1018 cold finished steel flat bar measuring 0.375 inches thick, 0.75 inches wide, and 36 inches long. Cold finishing produces tighter dimensional tolerances, a smoother surface finish, and improved machinability compared to hot rolled bar stock. This makes it well suited for applications requiring precise fits, clean cuts, or secondary machining operations. At 2.9 pounds per bar, it is easy to handle as a single-length stock piece. Licensed tradespeople, fabricators, and maintenance technicians working in mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades commonly use this bar for brackets, supports, straps, and custom hardware fabrication.

This flat bar is appropriate for both light fabrication and repair applications in residential and commercial settings. It serves as general-purpose stock for creating mounting brackets, equipment supports, strap hangers, and similar structural elements. Its 36-inch length provides a practical working blank that can be cut, drilled, bent, or welded to fit standard trade installation requirements. It is sold and shipped as a single bar with no minimum order beyond one piece.

Key Features

• 1018 steel alloy with good machinability and weldability for shop and field fabrication

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 1018 cold finished steel flat bar suitable for fabrication, maintenance, and repair tasks across mechanical and trade applications where standard low-carbon steel stock is specified.

Installation Notes

Cutting, drilling, welding, or bending should be performed by qualified tradespeople using appropriate tooling and personal protective equipment. Secure the workpiece firmly before machining or cutting operations. Follow applicable codes and facility safety requirements when welding or grinding. Inspect the bar for any surface defects before use in structural or load-bearing applications.
