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

Very nice product. Strong enough for the job.

Ordered two in a row, had to return both. Supposed to be one inch diameter and both are 1 1/8 diameter. Waste of time.

Well, its round, about a foot long and the ends arent quite square, but its almost exactly what is described. Im down rating this because it has a 4 inch long i wide UPC label stuck to the working surface of the rod. I need to slide close tolerance bearings onto this rod and Ive spent the last 30 minutes trying to scrape the label off without scratching the surface. I would be willing to pay twice the price if I could be certain that they were not going to put stickers on.

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.

Rods were individually packed in plastic tubes. No rust, and they were straight. What more would you want? Welded nice with a basic flux gun.

Arrived on time and as described

I got the 1 inch diameter, 24 inch long 1018 carbon steel round rod. It measured just a hair over 24 inches long. And according to my calipers, its slightly over 0.999 in diameter. Perfect size. It does have a large UPC label, but unlike a previous review, the label was fairly easy to peel off. Using just my fingernail, I peeled it off mostly in one piece. There was some minor sticky residue and a shred of torn label left over, but I sprayed a little WD-40 on there and wiped it right off with a paper towel. It took about 2 minutes to get all traces of the label off with no damage to the bar. (This was in my freezing cold basement shop. I bet it would peel off easier if it was warm.)

I read the reviews and assumed there was only the 1” bar. I incorrectly ordered the 0.125” bar. There is no return policy. The good thing was the bar was delivered faster than expected. Please pay attention to the diameter when ordering!

Works Great!

Best deal around nobody local couldn’t touch the price even with the shipping great job thanks
