High Strength Bars

KROMITE® KEYSTOCK - Cold Finished, Double Drawn, Plus Tolerance

Kromite Keystock is a cold drawn product manufactured to the tightest "plus-side" tolerances for precision and accuracy. Strength, uniformity, and surface finish are controlled through a unique “double draw” process that increases the physical properties and refines the tolerances.

Strain hardened for maximum strength; do not confuse this product with commercial cold roll that is usually just a 1018, (mild steel). Kromite Keystock is manufactured specifically to develop high strength and precision tolerances.
