12L14 Cold Finish Steel Bar Advantages
This standard resulfurized and rephosphorized benefits from the addition of tiny lead particles which enhance machinability. 12L14 low-carbon steel is available in round, hex and square bar. When deciding if 12L14 is right for your application keep in mind steel the added lead content reduces the overall strength of the alloy.
Features of 12L14 Carbon Steel include:
- Good strength
- Excellent machinability
- Precision grade
- Various shape options
- Increased part life
Properties
12L14 cold finish carbon steel round, hex, and square bar is a low friction carbon steel alloy that provides a smooth machined surface and increased life. The lead allows the material to break up into smaller chips during machining reducing entanglement and friction and allowing higher machining speeds.
