Product Description
Carbon Steel Round Bar is a circular cross-section bar made of carbon steel, widely used in mechanical processing, construction, automotive manufacturing, hardware tools and other fields. Its performance is mainly determined by the carbon content (low carbon steel, medium carbon steel, high carbon steel), with high strength, processability, and cost-effectiveness. A36 is the most commonly used low-carbon structural steel in the American standard (ASTM A36), widely used in construction, bridges, machinery manufacturing, and general structural components
