CEAX Precision Ground Bar
High tensile strength, good machinability and weldability.
If your requirements are for straightness, surface finish and diameter tolerance are tougher than average, you should be using ground steel bars.
But before you do, make sure that you have selected a supplier with adequate resources. The resources to deliver the right product, with the right tolerances, in the right grade and dimensions, at the right time.
Midland Special Steel has these resources combined with experience. We have, over many years, put a lot of time and effort into researching and supplying centreless ground steel.
CEAX is made from our well respected materials. It is a straighter, rounder bar with finer surface and minimal tolerances.
