AISI 1018 Carbon Steel Round Bar Forged Round Bar SAE1018 Forging steel Manufacturer

AISI 1018 mild/low carbon steel has excellent weldability and produces a uniform and harder case and it is considered as the best steel for carburized parts. AISI 1018 mild/low carbon steel offers a good balance of toughness, strength and ductility.
AISI 1018 steel has good hot forming characteristics.On the one hand, it can be deformed by hot rolling and hot forging process through pressure to eliminate casting defects, improve the structure and improve the mechanical properties of materials. On the other hand, it can also be processed as required into various sizes of rings, tubes, shafts, plates and other complex shapes.

Forged Round Bar AISI 1018 Alternative Grade

Forged Round Bar AISI 1018 Chemical Compostion

First of all, AISI 1018 is an American grade, a kind of low-carbon steel, derived from ASTM A29 standard, while S355J2G3 is a European grade, belonging to low-carbon structural steel, derived from EN10250-2 standard.Next, let’s take a look at the main differences between them.

From the above table, it can be seen that there is not much difference between the two materials. The composition adjustment of S355J2G3 is more flexible, but the control of residual metal elements is stricter.



Forged Round Bar AISI 1018 Application

AISI 1018 steel is a low-carbon steel. In actual use, there are two completely different application methods according to its own characteristics.

In the first case, according to the inherent characteristics of AISI 1018 steel: low strength but good toughness and plasticity.
Under hot-rolled or normalized conditions,AISI 1018 steel can be used to manufacture various mechanical parts that are not stressed but require high toughness,unimportant structural parts, connecting parts and stamping parts.

In the second case, according to the low-carbon composition characteristics of AISI 1018 steel, carburizing process can be selected to obtain a high-strength surface and a core with good toughness.It is suitable for manufacturing small and medium-sized parts in automobiles and tractors,And small and medium-sized parts that are not important for construction in general machinery manufacturing,such as handbrake shoes, lever shafts, gearbox speed forks, transmission passive gears and camshafts on tractors, suspension equalizer shafts, equalizer inner and outer bushings on automobiles, etc.
