15.8mm x 4.8mm Mild Steel Flat Bar EN3B Bright Mill Finish, Weldable & Machinable Ideal for Fabrication & Construction Linear Metre

• Material: Mild Steel, a versatile and commonly used carbon steel known for its affordability and ease of fabrication.

• Grade: EN3B, indicating a specific grade within the mild steel category, often employed in general engineering applications due to its balanced properties.

• Shape: The steel is in the form of a flat bar, suitable for various construction and fabrication projects requiring a flat surface.

• Dimensions: The flat bar has a thickness of 4.8mm (or 3/16 inches) and a width of 15.8mm (or 5/8 inches), providing specific measurements for applications requiring such dimensions.

• Finish: Described as "Bright Mill Finish," suggesting that it retains a shiny surface produced during the manufacturing process without any additional treatment. This finish is characterized by its reflective and smooth appearance.

• Weight per Meter: The weight of the flat bar per meter is 0.58 kg, serving as a reference for calculating material requirements for specific projects.

• Formability: Exhibits good formability, allowing it to be shaped, bent, or manipulated relatively easily to suit various design requirements.

• Weldability: Demonstrates excellent weldability, enabling effective welding to other materials using standard welding techniques.

• Machinability: Offers excellent machinability, indicating it can be easily cut, drilled, or machined using conventional machining methods.

• Corrosion Resistance: Mild steel typically presents poor corrosion resistance, making it susceptible to rust and degradation in corrosive environments. Proper surface treatment or maintenance may be necessary to prevent corrosion and prolong its lifespan.
