    Extreme-Strength Highly Machinable 1144 Carbon Steel Rods

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Steel. Extreme-Strength Highly Machinable 1144 Carbon Steel Rods.
    Made with more carbon and manganese than other easy-to-machine carbon steels, 1144 carbon steel has a higher yield strength and hardness. Use them to fabricate parts that require stress resistance, such as gears, shafts, and bushings. For added wear resistance, these rods can be surface hardened with heat treating.
    100,000 psi Yield Strength—Also known as Stressproof, these rods are stress-relieved to minimize warping during machining.
