1018 Carbon Steel Round Rod, Unpolished (Mill) Finish, Cold Finished Temper, ASTM A108, 1 Diameter, 12 Length

I was looking at my small cnc lathe , and a brilliant idea came over me like bed sheets fresh out of the dryer. All i needed was some 3/4 steel rod , preferably 1018 , something affordable and prone to good finishes with carbide inserts.. Amazon had no 3/4 rod through prime , thats when I found this 1 with next day prime delivery.. excellent rod.. the end

This was a perfect fit to replace my base rod on uberti cattleman. Just polished and filed groves. Factory base rod was .247 and this was .249 after I polished it.

My goof. It is as thin as a paper clip. I needed a steel ROD to keep an air conditioner from falling out of my odd shaped window.

It’s unfortunate I didn’t put the dial indicator on it when it came last week. It easily measures close to an 1-1/16th. I received the 1” pillow block bearings, and was shocked when the shaft wasn’t even close. I’ll have to find a section of 1” shaft locally. Packaging was excellent and it arrived quickly just wrong size.

Saw other complaints but received and cannot see any issues..Product measures at 1.495 inches so Ill take that as temp or micrometer variances...only super minor surface flash rusting in one little spot that came off with a wipe of WD40 and acetone...

I read the reviews and assumed there was only the 1” bar. I incorrectly ordered the 0.125” bar. There is no return policy. The good thing was the bar was delivered faster than expected. Please pay attention to the diameter when ordering!

Exactly as described. Completely satified

I purchased the 1 inch diameter by 72 inches in length. I was so afraid to buy this without really knowing the size but it turned out to be perfect. I was missing a bar for my smith machine and I finally figured it out. I’m so happy with this purchase. The shipping also great it was very fast.

Item exactly as advertised

High quality, prompt delivery. Very satisfied
