Value Collection ER01.25X36 1045 Steel Round Rod 1.25x36 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION ER01.25X36 is a 1045 medium carbon steel round rod measuring 1.25 inches in diameter and 36 inches in length. Produced with a cold finish and annealed heat treatment, this rod offers consistent dimensional tolerances and improved machinability compared to hot-rolled alternatives. The annealing process relieves internal stresses, making the material easier to cut, drill, turn, and thread. At 12.7 pounds, it is a solid-stock piece suited for fabrication shops, maintenance departments, and general industrial use. Machinists, welders, and metal fabricators are the primary users of this type of stock.

1045 medium carbon steel is a versatile material used across a wide range of fabrication and repair applications. Its carbon content provides a balance of strength and workability, making it appropriate for shafts, pins, studs, couplings, and general structural components. The cold finish surface is suitable for applications where tighter dimensional accuracy is needed without additional surface grinding. This rod is commonly found in machine shops, repair facilities, and industrial maintenance environments where standard round bar stock is cut to length for custom parts.

Key Features

• 1045 medium carbon steel grade for balanced strength and machinability
• Cold finish surface for tighter dimensional tolerances
• Annealed heat treatment reduces internal stress for easier machining
• 1.25 inch diameter by 36 inch length ready-to-machine stock
• 12.7 pound solid bar suitable for shaft, pin, and coupling fabrication

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 1045 medium carbon steel round bar suitable for use in fabrication, repair, and machining applications requiring standard round stock in 1.25 inch diameter.

Installation Notes

Cutting, drilling, and turning operations should be performed with tooling rated for medium carbon steel. Appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection and gloves is required during all cutting and machining operations. When welding 1045 steel, preheat procedures appropriate to the material thickness and carbon content should be followed per applicable welding standards. Always secure the workpiece properly before machining to prevent movement.
