Silver Steel Round Bar 13mm x 333mm Mill Finish Good Weldability Ideal for Precision Engineering and Tool Making Applications

13mm Silver Steel Round Bar

Material Characteristics:

• Material: Silver Steel
  • Grade: Silver Steel
  • Silver steel is a high-carbon steel alloyed with chromium and tungsten, known for its hardness, wear resistance, and ability to hold a sharp cutting edge.

Physical Properties:

• Shape: Round Bar
  • The silver steel bar has a circular cross-section.
• Diameter: 13mm
  • The diameter of the bar is 13 millimeters.
• Length: 333mm
  • The length of the bar is 333 millimeters.

Mechanical Properties:

• Formability: Poor
  • Silver steel has poor formability due to its high carbon content and hardness. It is brittle and not easily formed or bent without risk of cracking.
• Weldability: Good
  • It has relatively good weldability compared to other high-carbon steels, though welding may require preheating and post-weld heat treatment to avoid cracking and maintain properties.
• Machinability: Excellent
  • Silver steel is prized for its excellent machinability. It can be easily machined to precise dimensions and smooth finishes, making it suitable for applications requiring high precision.

Additional Characteristics:

• Corrosion Resistance: Poor
  • Like other high-carbon steels, silver steel has poor corrosion resistance. It is susceptible to rust and corrosion in humid or corrosive environments and requires protective coatings or treatments.
• Weight/Metre: 1.04 Kg
  • The weight of the bar per meter length is approximately 1.04 kilograms.
