Emil High Carbon Bright Silver Steel Precision Ground

The 1/2-inch diameter Emil High Carbon Bright Silver Steel strikes an excellent balance between versatility and strength, making it one of the most popular sizes for general precision engineering work. Ground to an exceptional tolerance of ±0.00025 inches, this half-inch variant is ideal for manufacturing pins, small shafts, tooling components and precision fixtures. This size is particularly well-suited to toolmaking, jig and fixture building, and general workshop applications where moderate strength combines with precision requirements. The 13-inch length provides ample material for most standard projects whilst remaining easy to handle and store. The closely controlled chemical analysis ensures uniform machining properties, so you can rely on consistent cutting behaviour and predictable results when drilling, turning or milling. Heat treatment response is equally reliable, making this size perfect for components requiring hardening or tempering processes.
