1050 Round Bar: Material Profile

1050 is used for parts requiring higher strength and surface durability than lower-carbon grades can typically provide.

Heat-treatment response, machinability, and final properties depend on section size and the specified starting condition.

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

  • High strength potential
  • Good wear resistance
  • Responsive to heat treatment
  • Suitable for induction hardening

Common Applications

  • Axles and shafts
  • Gears and sprockets
  • Pins and machinery components
  • Forged and heat-treated 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.
