Semih Metals is a top manufacturer and distributor of SAE 1015 round bars and rods from Istanbul, Turkey. Committed to quality, consistency, and customer satisfaction, the company offers solid carbon steel solutions for multiple industrial and engineering purposes. SAE 1015 is a low-carbon steel grade that is highly machinable, weldable, and uniform, and thus perfect for cold-forming operations. Semih Metals manufactures SAE 1015 round bars and rods to professional industry standards, providing automotive, construction, manufacturing, and general engineering clients with reliable, affordable steel products.
SAE 1015 round bars and rods consist mostly of iron containing approximately 0.13–0.18% carbon, 0.30–0.60% manganese, and small amounts of phosphorus and sulfur. This low-carbon steel possesses fair strength and hardness and great ductility and formability. It possesses a standard tensile strength of approximately 440–550 MPa and yield strength of about 250–300 MPa. SAE 1015 is machinable, weldable, and cold-workable, which makes it an ideal candidate for precision forming applications or where surface hardness is enhanced by carburizing without sacrificing core ductility.

SAE 1015 round bars are typically sized by their diameter, ranging from small diameters like 1/4 inch to larger sizes up to 12 inches or more, depending on customer specifications.
SAE 1015 bars and rods are available in various forms including cold-finished, hot-rolled, polished, and precision ground. They are used for machining, manufacturing, and engineering applications, offering excellent strength and flexibility.
Yes, laser welding can be used for SAE 1015 bar. It offers precise control, low heat input, and minimal distortion, making it suitable for joining this low-carbon steel material.
SAE 1015 round bars and rods find extensive applications in various industries owing to their excellent mechanical properties and the facility with which they can be processed. In the automotive industry, they find wide application as shafts, pins, bolts, and fasteners. In manufacturing, they are best suited for parts to be formed, welded, or carburized, i.e., bushings, machine components, and studs. Construction industries employ SAE 1015 for structural support components and reinforcement. It also finds application in farm equipment, furniture frames, and consumer products where moderate strength and economy are crucial.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
