They’re well-known for their commitment to quality, ensuring that every product is crafted with precision and meets international standards. With a strong emphasis on keeping customers happy, Neil Metals delivers durable and dependable carbon steel bars that cater to a variety of industrial needs. Their EN-42 bars are highly regarded for their impressive strength, wear resistance, and exceptional finish, making Neil Metals a go-to partner in industries like automotive, tooling, and general engineering, efficiently serving both local and global markets.
Carbon Steel EN-42 Bars are primarily made up of high carbon content (around 0.70–0.85%), manganese (0.50–1.00%), along with trace amounts of silicon, sulfur, and phosphorus. These bars boast remarkable mechanical properties, featuring a tensile strength between 700–900 MPa and good hardness (typically reaching 200–300 HB in an annealed state). The steel is known for its high wear resistance, decent machinability, and can be heat-treated to boost its strength. These characteristics make EN-42 perfect for applications that require durability, toughness, and the ability to withstand fatigue from repeated stress.
