A179 Carbon steel round bar
Classification :
PRODUCT DETAILS
A179 carbon steel round bar, also available as cut sheet and plate, is cold-drawn low-carbon steel bar under ASTM A179 standard. It has good ductility, fine cold forming performance and uniform grain structure. It features reliable weldability and machinability, with stable mechanical properties at normal temperature. Widely used for heat exchanger tubes accessories, mechanical processing parts, boiler auxiliary components and general structural elements.

Key Features
Good Cold Forming Performance: Low carbon content provides excellent ductility, suitable for bending, flaring and cold processing.
Stable Mechanical Properties: Consistent tensile strength and hardness, reliable for general pressure and heat exchange related applications.
Great Weldability & Machinability: Easy to cut, turn and drill; can be welded by common carbon steel welding methods.
Uniform Metallurgical Structure: Fine and stable grain, less internal defects, fit for heat exchanger and boiler related parts.
Affordable Cost: Economical low carbon steel material, cost-effective for general engineering projects.
Limited High-temperature Strength: Not suitable for long-term service under extremely high temperature and heavy load conditions.
Main Applications
Heat Exchanger & Boiler Industry: Heat exchanger tube fittings, boiler internal small structural parts, condenser component blanks.
Mechanical Fabrication: General machined parts, bolts and fastener blanks, shaft sleeves and small mechanical components.
Pipeline Auxiliary Parts: Low pressure pipe supports, pipe connecting fittings, pipeline fixing brackets.
General Structural Engineering: Light-duty structural pins, equipment mounting supports, ordinary mechanical assembly parts.
