For manufacturers and engineers in Hamilton and beyond, Latham Steel has built a strong reputation as a trusted local source for high-quality steel. We’re proud to supply Carbon Steel EN-31 Bars, a material chosen for its exceptional reliability in demanding situations. Sourced for consistent performance, this grade is ideal for applications where strength and durability are non-negotiable, providing a solid foundation for critical components right here from our base in the Waikato region.
Carbon Steel EN-31 is characterized by a high carbon and chromium composition, which gives it notable wear resistance. Through precise heat treatment, it achieves impressive hardness and strong tensile strength. This ability to be hardened makes it exceptionally tough, allowing it to withstand significant stress and abrasion over time, ensuring a long service life even under challenging operating conditions.
