Bright Bars for Electrical & Electronics Industry

In the electrical and electronics industry, precision is crucial for component integrity. Stancor Bright Bars ensure that components are produced with tight tolerances, eliminating the need for roughing cuts.

The wear problem

The wear mechanism often encountered in machining these components is sliding abrasion, which can lead to dimensional inaccuracies. This results in premature wear of the workpiece and tooling, affecting production efficiency.

Questions engineers ask

What grade should I use for high wear applications?

For high wear applications, grades like 535A99 / 100Cr6 are recommended due to their excellent hardness and wear resistance.

How does surface finish impact machining?

A better surface finish reduces friction and heat generation, resulting in extended tool life and improved machining efficiency.

Can I customize the thickness of the bars?

Yes, we offer a range of thickness bands to cater to various component requirements.

What are the benefits of cold drawn bars?

Cold drawn bars provide superior tolerances, surface finishes, and straightness compared to conventional bars.
