This unalloyed steel offers excellent machinability and impressive tensile properties, making it ideal for manufacturing gears, bolts, axles, keys, studs, and more. With its reliable performance and durability, C45 Round Bar is a must-have material for any skilled engineer or builder. Trust in C45 steel round bar for your next project and achieve the results you’ve been searching for.

Steel C45 Round Bar is an unalloyed medium carbon steel, which is also a general carbon engineering steel. C45 is a medium strength steel with good machinability and excellent tensile properties. C45 round steel is generally supplied in the black hot rolled or occasionally in the normalised condition, with a typical tensile strength range 570–700Mpa and Brinell hardness range 170–210 in either condition. It does not however respond satisfactorily to nitriding due to a lack of suitable alloying elements.

C45 round bar steel is equivalent to EN8 or 080M40. Steel C45 bar or plate is suitable for the manufacture of parts such as gears, bolts, general-purpose axles and shafts, keys and studs. Hot forming temperature should be 850–1200°C. Pre heat to 750°C — 800°C, then continue heating to 1100°C — 1200°C maximum, hold until temperature is uniform throughout the section and commence forging immediately. Forging is not workable below 850°C. Finished forgings could be air cooled.

C45 round bar steel material and steel plate C45, flats are widely used in all industry for uses which require more strength and wear resistance than the low carbon mild steel. Quenched and subsequently tempered steel for C45 steel grade round bar, steel plate, flat and square is used for axles, bolts, forged connecting rods, crankshafts, torsion bars, light gears, guide rods, screws, forgings, wheel tyres, shafts, sickles, axes, knives, wood working drills, hammers, etc.
