Free Cutting Steels, high-sulfur (S) and manganese (Mn) content alloy steels, enabling fast machining due to the formation of small and brittle chips thanks to Manganese and Sulfur. Because of their ease of machinability, they are described as the most suitable steel for machining operations such as longitudinal and face turning, threading, drilling, knurling, etc., performed on single or multi-spindle, revolver, and lathe machines. The addition of Lead (Pb) to these steels can increase cutting speeds. Automatic steels are divided into three groups: those subjected to heat treatment, those not subjected to heat treatment, and those subjected to carburization treatment. Free Cutting steels are used as cold-drawn with precise dimensional tolerances. Surface smoothness is produced within h9, h11 tolerances. Our standard lengths are 3 meters, and special diameters and dimensions can be made according to customer demand.
