Renowned for its precision and dependability, Phehlukwayo Metal crafts customized steel solutions that cater to the demanding needs of the automotive, construction, and engineering industries. With a strong commitment to quality control and customer satisfaction, the company guarantees that every product meets both local and international standards. The 1141 Cold Drawn Bar and Rod is known for its exceptional machinability and strength, making it a go-to choice for clients who prioritize performance and durability in challenging applications.
The 1141 Cold Drawn Bar and Rod is a medium-carbon steel that has been enhanced with sulfur to boost machinability. Its typical chemical makeup includes around 0.48% carbon, 1.50% manganese, and 0.08–0.13% sulfur. Thanks to the cold drawing process, this steel showcases high tensile strength, a great surface finish, and consistent mechanical properties. Typical mechanical characteristics include a tensile strength of about 620 MPa, yield strength of 520 MPa, and commendable hardness. The added sulfur aids in chip-breaking during machining, making it perfect for high-speed automated equipment where precision and productivity are key.

Carbon Steel 1141 Bars are used in applications requiring high strength, wear resistance, and machinability, including automotive parts, gears, shafts, fasteners, and industrial machinery components. Ideal for medium-duty applications.
Carbon Steel 1141 rods have high tensile strength (~725 MPa), good yield strength (~415 MPa), moderate hardness (~197 HB), excellent machinability, and limited weldability, making them suitable for wear-resistant applications.
The 1141 Cold Drawn Bar and Rod is widely utilized in industries that require precision-machined components with reliable mechanical performance. Its excellent machinability makes it perfect for high-volume manufacturing of parts like gears, shafts, spindles, studs, pins, and bolts. Commonly found in the automotive, agricultural, and mechanical engineering sectors, it allows for fast, accurate machining without excessive tool wear. While it’s not ideal for welding due to its sulfur content, its dimensional stability and smooth finish are beneficial for tight-tolerance parts. Phehlukwayo Metal offers this material in various sizes and lengths to cater to the specific needs of a diverse range of industrial clients.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
