Description
ASTM A510 Carbon and Alloy Steel Wire Rods
ASTM A510 wire rods are high-quality carbon and alloy steel rods designed for drawing into wire and further processing into precision-engineered components. These wire rods are known for their excellent strength, ductility, and performance in a wide range of forming and manufacturing applications. Whether for industrial fasteners, springs, or structural components, ASTM A510 ensures consistency, reliability, and high machinability.
Product Features:
- Available in both carbon steel and alloy steel grades
- Suitable for cold drawing and subsequent heat treatments
- Excellent dimensional precision and surface finish
- Manufactured to meet stringent ASTM A510/A510M specifications
- Supplied in coil form with optional pickling and oiling
