    How much carbon content does the plain metal bar stock have?
    ByOct 16, 2026
    1 Answer | 
    Answer This Question

    Hello, This is a low carbon flat bar, but there really is no way to verify the exact carbon content within the bar. The Rockwell hardness scale would be a max of 95. ---Acme Manufacturing Company Product Team

      Hello, We would not categorize this item as sturdy. It has quite a bit of bend to it if held in the middle. ---Acme Manufacturing Company Product Team

                    It's is a mild steel bar. Not much to say about it, except that it was the right dimension for my welding product. You could certainly get it cheaper when buying 20-foot pieces at your local metal yard, but I needed a small pice of metal in this size and it was convenient to just pick it up here.

                    I used the aluminum bar to reinforce a broken jalousie window crank. The bar was easy to shape and drill, but strong enough for this application. Replacement was not an option, as the crank is long out of production.
                    by
                    Excellent quality steel for welding designs and projects, pricing is a little high for the going market value of steel, but then again, I paid for the convenience as I needed the steel quickly.

                    I don't understand the reason for posting a review of a piece of aluminum flat bar, but Home Depot has emailed me repeatedly asking for a review. This time they offered a 10% coupon in exchange for a review of at least 50 characters. I'm not confident that they will honor that offer, but nothing I have written violates the terms and conditions, so here goes. The bar is fine. It met my expectations. I used it to hang RC helicopters on the wall.

                    Poorly packaged
                    Poorly packaged in flimsy box, arrived damaged and unusable.

                      This product was perfect for our application - bracing existing framing on a triptych from 1978. Easy to cut and drill. I only have a BEFORE photo, but the flatness and light weight nature of these bars were just what we needed.
                      by
                      I was building a scenic piece that needed stability that was lightweight, a slim profile, and resilient. This product checked all of the boxes

                      Used it for rails for our filing cabinets. Was easy to cut. Afterwards, cleaned it and painted it. Looks great.
