Product Description

Round steel is a kind of hollow cylindrical metal material, which is widely used in construction, machinery manufacturing, automobile manufacturing, energy, transportation and other industries.
Round steel is mainly made of carbon steel, alloy steel and tool steel.
Among them, carbon steel round steel refers to steel with carbon content within the range of 0.20% to 0.55%.
Carbon steel round steel is an economical and practical structural material with good weldability, plasticity and machinability
Alloy steel round steel refers to the steel with a certain amount of alloying elements (chromium, manganese, cobalt, boron, molybdenum, vanadium, etc.), which can obtain higher strength, hardness, corrosion resistance and wear resistance.
Tool steel Round steel is a kind of high-speed tool steel material, which has the advantages of high hardness, high red hardness and wear resistance.
Therefore, the material characteristics of round steel are very different from the scope of application.

Packing & Delivery









1.What is a round bar?
Round bar is exactly as it sounds; a long, cylindrical metal bar. Round bar is available in a variety of metals including black steel, bright steel, stainless steel, aluminium, engineering steel, brass and more; and in many different diameters ranging from 1/4″ up to 24". Steel Round Bars.
2.What size is a round bar?
Round bars can range from as thin as 1/8 inch (3mm) in diameter to more than 12 inches (300mm) for specialized uses. The most common sizes usually fall between 1/4 inch (6mm) and 2 inches (50mm).
3.What is the difference between a round bar and a rod?
Round bars often possess higher tensile strength and hardness, making them suitable for load-bearing applications. Meanwhile, rods offer increased flexibility and are more malleable, catering to intricate designs and bending requirements.
4.Which is better, SS or MS?
Fabrication. As chrome is a hard alloy, stainless steels are much more impact resistant compared to mild steel and (although relatively easy to fabricate) are not as easy to fabricate as mild steel. Mild steel is much more malleable compared to stainless and so is used a lot in general fabrication.
5.How strong is a round bar?
Compressive Strength
Round Bars: Round bars handle compressive loads very well because their shape helps distribute stress evenly. This makes them especially good for applications where the pressure is centred, as it helps them resist bending or deforming under heavy loads.
