Cold finishing refines the surface to tighter dimensional tolerances and produces a smoother finish compared to hot rolled bar stock. The result is a bar that holds consistent cross-section measurements along its full length, making it well suited for precision machining, fabrication, and structural applications where dimensional accuracy matters. At 23.16 pounds, this bar carries the mass expected of solid low-carbon steel in this size. Tradespeople, fabricators, and machinists working with ferrous stock will find 1018 a reliable, weldable, and machinable grade for a wide range of project requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis flat bar is used in general fabrication shops, maintenance and repair operations, and industrial manufacturing environments. It is appropriate for applications such as supports, brackets, frames, shafts, fixtures, and tooling components. The 36-inch length suits bench-scale cutting and machining without requiring additional breakdown of longer stock. Both trade professionals and skilled DIYers working in metal fabrication commonly use 1018 cold finished bar when dimensional consistency and surface quality are priorities over the cost savings of hot rolled material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1018 low-carbon steel grade offers good weldability and machinability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCold finished process delivers tighter dimensional tolerances than hot rolled bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmooth surface finish reduces secondary cleanup work before machining or finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlat bar profile at 0.75 inches thick by 3 inches wide suits bracket and structural fabrication\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e36-inch length works directly on standard bench setups without preliminary stock reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a single bar with a minimum order quantity of 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 1018 cold finished steel flat bar for use in general fabrication, machining, and maintenance applications where low-carbon steel stock of this cross-section is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCutting, drilling, and welding of 1018 steel should be performed by qualified fabricators or machinists using appropriate personal protective equipment. Secure the bar firmly in a vise or fixture before cutting to prevent movement. When welding, follow applicable AWS guidelines for low-carbon steel and ensure adequate ventilation. Wear gloves when handling bar stock, as cold finished edges can be sharp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1018\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cold Finished\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23.16 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30263600\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: .75X03.0X36\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51701870133554,"sku":".75X03.0X36","price":80.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c69e532a8ae788a8dfbf314aa67175fa_f5056821-ae73-43bc-a855-86a73e0ffcf8.jpg?v=1788406304","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-75x03-0x36-1018-cold-finished-steel-bar","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
