SPECIFICATIONS FOR COLD DRAWN CARBON SQUARES

C – 1018 – COLOR CODE – BLACK
General Purpose, low carbon, suited to Cold Forming and Welding. Machinability 76%.

C – 1045 – COLOR CODE – BRONZE
Medium carbon that has advantages in strength over lower carbon steels – important for shafting. Good heat treatment which is useful for studs and special bolts. Machines to a smoother finish than 1018. Machinability 57%.

C – 1117 – COLOR CODE – RED
Ideal for use in manufacture of parts subject to shock or vibrations, as it is readily case carbonized. Machinability 90%.

C – 1215 – COLOR CODE – BLUE
Low carbon screw stock, produces smooth and bright finish. Machinability 136%.

C – 12L14 – COLOR CODE – BROWN (LED“A”)
Recommended for high speed automatic screw machining. Produces a smooth machined surface. Provides longer tool life and increased production. Contains lead. Machinability 180%.

C – 12L15X – COLOR CODE – RED AND GREEN
Ledloy “A” with Selenium added. Provides faster machining than Led “A”. Produces excellent surface finish and longer tool life. Machinability 300%.
