Starrett 55071 Low Carbon Flat Stock 1-1/2" x 4" x 24"

The Starrett 55071 is a precision-ground flat stock bar made from low carbon steel, measuring 1-1/2 inches thick by 4 inches wide by 24 inches long. This versatile tool steel stock is ideal for machining, fabrication, and toolmaking applications where deep hardening is not required.

Key Features:

• Precision-ground low carbon steel flat stock
• Dimensions: 1-1/2" thickness x 4" width x 24" length
• Can be carburized or case hardened for surface hardness
• Excellent machinability and weldability
• Suitable for general fabrication, jigs, fixtures, and tooling
• Consistent dimensional accuracy for precision work

Low carbon steel provides good ductility and formability, making it easy to machine, drill, and weld. While not suitable for applications requiring through-hardening, this material can be surface-treated through carburizing or case hardening processes to achieve a hard wear-resistant surface while maintaining a tough core.
