- A simple tough high carbon steel.
- 1075 is suitable for forging or stock removal.
- 1075 is especially suitable for hard use knives due to its toughness when properly heat treated.
This alloy is similar to 15N20 without 2% nickel.
This alloy been properly annealed and is in the soft condition. You do not have to do any non-standard wasteful processes before heat treating. The steel must be heat treated to get to a hardened state.

Chemistry Information : 1075 Carbon Steel
This rectangle bar measures 0.192 inches in thickness, 2 inches in width, and 11.6 inches in length. It is made from 1075 carbon steel, which contains 0.7-0.8% carbon and 0.4-0.7% manganese, making it a tough, high carbon steel suitable for hard use.
The bar is supplied in an annealed, soft condition and must be heat treated to achieve hardness. It is especially suitable for forging or stock removal and is ideal for applications like hard use knives due to its toughness after proper heat treatment.
This product ships as a standard 11.6-inch length and is available for shipment within 1 business day. Custom cutting options are not specified for this item.
No, a Material Test Report (MTR) is not available for this product.
Due to its toughness and high carbon content, this bar is particularly suitable for making hard use knives and other applications requiring durable, tough steel that can be forged or machined after heat treatment.
