Luois Metals stands out as a trusted manufacturer and supplier of **1141 Cold Drawn Bars and Rods**, proudly based in Houston, USA. We focus on delivering high-strength carbon steel bars that not only enhance machinability but also ensure precise dimensional accuracy, making them perfect for a variety of industrial and engineering applications. The cold drawing process significantly boosts the surface finish and mechanical properties, which is why 1141 steel is often the go-to choice for precision components. At Luois Metals, we offer these bars and rods in custom sizes and tolerances tailored to your specific manufacturing needs.
**1141 Cold Drawn Bars and Rods** are made from medium carbon manganese steels, with added sulfur to enhance machinability. The typical makeup includes carbon (around 0.48–0.53%), manganese (1.35–1.65%), and sulfur (0.08–0.13%). These bars provide greater tensile and yield strength compared to standard 1018 or 1045 steels, along with superior surface quality and tight dimensional control thanks to the cold drawing process. While they aren’t ideal for welding, they excel in turned, ground, and polished conditions, especially where consistent machinability is essential.
