1″ X 8″ X 18″ Starrett Oversize Precision Ground Flat Stock AISI D-2 Air Hardened Steel 58741 Clearance

1″ X 8″ X 18″ Starrett Oversize Precision Ground Flat Stock | AISI D-2 Air Hardened Steel | 58741 is Starrett precision ground flat stock, supplied ground flat, square and parallel in aisi d-2 air hardened steel so it goes straight into layout, fixturing and machining work without further surfacing.

Precision ground flat stock provides a consistently flat reference surface for machining and fixturing.

AISI D-2 air hardened steel offers high hardness and wear resistance after heat treatment, enhancing tool life for forming and blanking tasks.

Oversize stock allows extra material for edge finishing, squaring, and custom shaping without compromising final dimensions.

Solid rectangular bar format supports consistent milling, grinding, and dimensional stability during workholding.

One-piece construction minimizes joint weakness and facilitates precise surfacing operations.
