1020 Round Bar: Material Profile

1020 combines ductility, machinability, and moderate strength for general industrial use.

Hot-rolled and cold-finished conditions provide different tolerances and surfaces, so include the intended manufacturing route on the RFQ.

Purchase to the controlling ASTM, SAE, AMS, or customer specification. Section size, supply condition, mechanical properties, surface limits, testing, and heat/lot traceability can change the acceptable material and processing route.

Key Characteristics

Good machinability
Good weldability
Good forming response
Suitable for carburizing

Common Applications

Shafts and pins
Gears and sprockets
Bushings and collars
General machine parts

Specification Requirements

Identify the governing specification and revision, product form, section size, condition, mechanical properties, testing, and certification requirements. The purchase specification and material certification govern the order.
