Dhruv Metals, located in Hyderabad, India, manufactures and supplies Carbon Steel AISI 1018 Bars and Rods. These bars are recognized for their excellent weldability, machinability, and balanced mechanical strength. AISI 1018 is a low-carbon steel grade that provides consistent quality and dimensional accuracy, making it suitable for general-purpose engineering applications. Produced to ASTM A108 and other international standards, Dhruv Metals ensures smooth surfaces, tight tolerances, and reliable performance. The 1018 bars come in round, square, and hexagonal shapes in various sizes to fit specific client needs.
AISI 1018 steel contains about 0.15–0.20% carbon, 0.60–0.90% manganese, and small amounts of phosphorus and sulfur. It has a tensile strength of about 440 MPa and a yield strength of roughly 370 MPa, with an elongation percentage of 15–20%. The low carbon content aids in excellent ductility and weldability while providing moderate strength. It can also be carburized to increase surface hardness for wear-resistant applications, making it useful for both untreated and heat-treated purposes.
