AISI 1045 Round Bar

Product Description

AISI 1045 Round Bar

Introduction:
AISI 1045 is a medium-carbon steel known for its excellent tensile strength, impact resistance, and machinability. Widely used in industries requiring higher strength than low-carbon steels, AISI 1045 round bars are versatile and suitable for various engineering and industrial applications.

Key Features and Benefits

1. High Tensile Strength:

   • AISI 1045 offers robust tensile strength, making it ideal for heavy-duty applications.

2. Good Machinability:

   • Known for its ease of machining, especially in its annealed state, allowing for precision manufacturing.

3. Wear Resistance:

   • Exhibits moderate wear resistance due to its carbon content, suitable for parts subject to friction.

4. Versatile Heat Treatment:

   • Responds well to heat treatments like quenching, tempering, and hardening to achieve desired mechanical properties.

5. Impact Resistance:

   • Provides excellent toughness, making it ideal for dynamic load applications.

6. Cost-Effective:

   • Affordable compared to alloy steels, offering a balance of performance and cost.
