Alloy Steel Round Bar is a high quality steel, high tensile steel usually supplied readily machine able in ‘T’ condition with good ductility and shock resisting properties combined with resistance to wear. Alloy steels are designated by AISI four-digit numbers. They comprise different kinds of steels having composition exceeding the limitations of B, C, Mn, Mo, Ni, Si, Cr, and Va set for carbon steels. Heat treatable and low alloy steel containing chromium, nickel and molybdenum. It has high toughness and strength in the heat treated condition.
It was originally introduced for the use in machine tool and motor industries for gears, pinions, shafts, spindles and the like. Later its applications became much more extended and it is now widely used in areas such as the oil and gas industries.
