1018 Carbon Steel Round Rod, Unpolished (Mill) Finish, Cold Finished Temper, ASTM A108, 1 Diameter, 12 Length

exactly what i needed.

Metal was perfect and the cuts were square. Great product and Im glad I dont have to drive an hour to get quality metal anymore!

Would recommend, size was good price was good. Using as a trial for bowl gouge before using a higher carbon steel.

I used this to make a laid-back bicycle seat post. I bent it and then make vertical supports that went down to the frame to form a triangle. I wanted a lower seat and moved back to provide enough leg room. I weigh in at about 400lbs and it has worked wonderfully!

I purchased the 1 inch diameter by 72 inches in length. I was so afraid to buy this without really knowing the size but it turned out to be perfect. I was missing a bar for my smith machine and I finally figured it out. I’m so happy with this purchase. The shipping also great it was very fast.

These steel rods worked great for a welding art project. However, I can save up to 80% buying rods at online-metals with a local warehouse offering will call in my city. So these are good, but much more expensive than local metal shops.

I made a floating arm Trebuchet as a family project to have a little fun during the 4th of July weekend up on the farm. I needed a pretty solid piece of steel rod to mount the counterweights. Locally it was hard to find what I needed at the length I wanted without paying more in labor to have it cut then what the material cost. I took a look on Amazon.com and found this rod. The price was good and through Amazon-Prime shipping was cheap. I ordered it and was pleased with how quickly it arrived and better yet the care that was used to ensure the rod was not damaged in shipment. The folks who packed it did an excellent job of packaging it up to ensure the ends were not damaged in shipment. Good quality steel and nice clean cuts. I filed the ends slightly to take the rough edges off. If I have a need for something like this in the future, I will most certainly consider using Amazon.com again.

The 5 metal rods were delivered as specified. They were in excellent condition. They were used in a Science project to test how fast heat travels through different materials. Highly recommended. Ed perez

It’s unfortunate I didn’t put the dial indicator on it when it came last week. It easily measures close to an 1-1/16th. I received the 1” pillow block bearings, and was shocked when the shaft wasn’t even close. I’ll have to find a section of 1” shaft locally. Packaging was excellent and it arrived quickly just wrong size.

This steel rod was to proper size and length
