12L14 Cold Drawn Steel Bar

12L14 COLD DRAWN STEEL BAR
Cold drawn 12L14 steel bar is a resulfurized and rephosphorized carbon steel. This grade is considered free machining, having excellent machinability due to its added sulfur, phosphorus, and lead. Due to its low carbon, this material has lower strength than other cold drawn grades. Steel Bar Company stocks several diameters of this grade to meet your demands quickly. We also supply 12L14 cold drawn bar to various industries like aerospace, automotive, and more.

 

Cold drawn 12L14 bars are one of the most widely utilized grade of leaded, rephosphorized and resulfurized carbon steel. With its high ductility properties, 12L14 bars are great for machining applications. Bolts, joints, shafts, fastners, bushings and couplings are some of the applications for 12L14 cold bars.

APPLICATIONS

Cold Roll Round Bar/Rod 12L14 Cold Drawn is normally used for industrial and high-speed machine applications. 12L14 steel offers high ductility and ease of machining due to the addition of lead. 12L14 is slightly weaker than other alloy steels as a result. Typical applications for this grade include fittings, couplings, and valves.
