SAE 5160
SAE 5160
(OP)
Anybody know where I could source some SAE 5160 flatbar. Preferably 1/2"x1" or 3/4"x1".
Where would I find a good reference for heat treating it?
Thanks

What quantity do you need? 1 foot? Enough to make 10000 parts that are 2 inches long? McMaster Carr probably stocks this for small quantities. Admiral Steel or Thompson Steel are possibilities for larger quantities.

it should be easy enough to cut, machinability is 50% of 1212 steel. take it slow.
