Excellent machinability and suitable for case hardening and electroplating.
En2a steel sheet.
We can supply en1a from stock in rounds squares hexagons and flats.
Another benefit of bright steel bars is a marked increase in physical strength over hot rolled bars of the same section.
The alloy is suitable for low strength components requiring significant drawing operations during manufacture.

The main advantage of cold drawn steel is that steel can be brought closer to the finished machine size providing reduces machining costs.
The column on the left shows some of the steel grades stocked by hillfoot while the middle columns show grades with similar chemistry and the two columns on the right display grades for potential substitution.
Carbon steels data sheets grade.
Bs s511 is an unalloyed heat treatable carbon steel available in sheet and strip.
Plain low carbon chemical composition.
In 1955 the bs970 en range of steel specifications was revised to add further steel grades.
No allowance had been made in the 1941 edition for a possible insertion of further steel grades and the british standards institution considered that to have applied a high en number would have divorced the grades completely from steels of similar types.
