Chemistry Information : 52100 Carbon Steel
This rectangle bar measures 0.248 inches in thickness, 3 inches in width, and 11.6 inches in length. It is made from 52100 carbon steel, known for its high carbon content (0.93 - 1.1%) and alloying elements like chromium (1.4 - 1.6%) that provide excellent wear resistance and strength.
The 52100 alloy bar is supplied annealed, meaning it has been properly softened for machining and forming. You do not need to perform any non-standard hardening processes; simply follow the recommended heat treatment recipe to achieve the desired hardness.
Yes, 52100 carbon steel is an excellent choice for knife making and industrial bearings due to its high strength and wear resistance, making it suitable for applications requiring durability and toughness.
The bar weighs approximately 3.05 pounds for shipping and is currently in stock, ready for purchase and delivery.
This bar is produced using a hot rolled, pickled, and annealed process, ensuring a clean surface finish and consistent mechanical properties.
