Value Collection .75X04.0X06 1018 Steel Flat Bar

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION .75X04.0X06 is a 1018 cold finished steel flat bar cut to 0.75 inches thick, 4 inches wide, and 6 inches long. Cold finishing produces tighter dimensional tolerances, a smoother surface finish, and improved machinability compared to hot rolled stock. The 1018 grade offers good weldability and moderate strength, making it a reliable choice for general fabrication, tooling fixtures, and structural components. This bar weighs approximately 6 pounds and ships in single-piece quantity. It is commonly handled by machinists, fabricators, and maintenance trades requiring ready-to-use steel stock with predictable mechanical properties.

This flat bar suits a wide range of shop and field fabrication tasks including brackets, spacers, mounting plates, jigs, and repair components. Its compact 6-inch length makes it well suited for smaller machined parts or as drop stock for custom cuts. The 1018 specification is one of the most commonly stocked cold finished carbon steel grades, recognized for consistent chemistry and broad availability across manufacturing and maintenance environments.
