Exceptional Case Hardening Capability

Carpenter 158 case hardening steel is specifically crafted for applications needing high surface hardness while preserving a tough, ductile core. This makes it an ideal choice for components that undergo intense wear but require impact resistance, such as gears, automotive parts, and tool components.


Guaranteed Traceability and Quality

Each bar is marked with a visible heat number on the end face to ensure material traceability throughout the manufacturing process. The green and white end markings further identify the material grade, while careful attention is paid to surface condition and protection against rust during storage and transit.


Tailored Dimensions and Finishes

C-158 round bars and rods are available in custom and standard lengths-typically 3 to 6 meters-and a range of diameters, commonly from 12mm to 300mm. Finishes such as peeled or turned enhance machinability, while tight tolerances can be achieved based on specific project requirements.

FAQ's of Carpenter 158, C-158 Case Hardening Steel Round Bar, Rods & Bars:


Q: How is Carpenter 158 C-158 steel round bar typically used in industry?

A: Carpenter 158 C-158 steel round bars are used for manufacturing components that require a hard, wear-resistant surface with a tough core, such as case-hardened gears, shafts, bushings, and automotive parts. They are widely used in engineering, manufacturing, and toolmaking sectors.

Q: What is the process for achieving case hardening with C-158 steel bars?

A: The process involves heat treating the C-158 steel to allow carbon to diffuse into the outer layer, typically through carburizing, followed by quenching and tempering. This results in a hardened outer surface while maintaining a ductile and tough core, essential for impact and fatigue resistance.

Q: When can I expect to receive C-158 round bars after placing an order?

A: Market availability is typically robust, with bars available in stock for prompt delivery or cut to length as per order requirements. Delivery times may vary depending on stock levels and custom specifications, but most suppliers can fulfill orders quickly.

Q: Where are these C-158 steel rods and bars manufactured?

A: These C-158 steel rods and bars are manufactured in India, as indicated by supplier stamps. India is a major hub for producing high-quality case hardening steels that meet international standards such as ASTM, AISI, and SAE.

Q: What benefits does C-158 case hardening steel offer over other grades?

A: C-158 case hardening steel delivers an excellent combination of surface hardness, wear resistance, and a ductile core. This balance ensures components are both durable under friction and impact-resistant, providing a longer service life than standard carbon steels.

Q: How are the steel bars packaged and protected during transit?

A: The bars are carefully packed either loose or bundled as per customer requirements and coated with oil to provide moderate corrosion protection. All products are quality-checked to be free from major surface defects and rust before dispatch.

Q: What are the standard sizes and tolerances for C-158 steel round bars?

A: C-158 steel round bars are available in standard lengths of 3 to 6 meters or can be cut as per order. Diameters range from approximately 12mm to 300mm, and tolerances are maintained as per standard specifications or specific customer requests.
