vCarbon Steel EN-1A Bars are distinguished by their low carbon content and the addition of sulfur, which boosts their machinability. These bars are known for their excellent free-cutting properties, making them perfect for precision machining and mass production tasks. EN-1A steel typically offers moderate tensile strength and hardness, making it suitable for light-duty mechanical applications. While it’s not designed for high-stress or impact situations, its smooth surface finish and consistent machining behavior make it a trustworthy choice for detailed shaping and threading work. Overall, EN-1A strikes a great balance between ease of fabrication and adequate mechanical performance.
Carbon Steel EN-1A Bar is known in the market name free-cutting mild steel contains 0.10-0.13%C, small proportion of Mn i.e. from 0.30-0.60 %, phosphorus limited to 0.05 and sulfur is between the range of 0.12-0.20%. Designed for better machining properties, yield strength of it is 400-600MPa, yielding at 250 MPa elongation is ranged between 20-30 %. EN-1A is known for ease of machining. It is well suited for producing shafts, fasteners, and fittings. Good weldability but not used for high-strength applications as carbon content is relatively low.
