BRIGHT BAR
BRIGHT BAR
Bright round steel bars for use in precision machining
What are bright round steel bars?
Bright round steel bars are made of carbon and alloy steel that has been precisely finished so that it can be used for high-precision machining in manufacturing. These bars have a smooth, polished surface finish that is achieved through cold drawing or centreless grinding. They have very tight dimensional tolerances, usually between ±0.025mm and ±0.075mm, and they meet Indian IS 9550 and international standards.
We are leading manufacturers of Bright Round and Bright Hexagon Bars.
These bars come in various sizes and grades and conform to various national and international standards as per the requirements of the customers.
We make our own hot-rolled bars for making bright steel. Depending on customers’ requirements, we also purchase steel bars from reputable manufacturers.
Various industries such as machined components, hydraulic fittings, pump shafts, fasteners, auto parts, construction, capital goods, valves, machine tools, dairy equipment, studs, bolts, pins, etc. use our bars.
Steel Bright Rods are steel bars manufactured by passing hot-rolled steel bars through dies in a cold process.
THE ADVANTAGES OF STEEL BRIGHT BARS ARE:
- Cold drawing of steel improves Size and Section which provides Tighter tolerances which Reduces machining losses.
- Improved Steel Surface Finish which Reduces surface machining & improves quality.
- Improved Straightness which Facilitates automatic bar feeding in CNC.
- It increases Mechanical Properties which Can reduce the need for hardening.
- It improves Machinability and Productivity which Enables higher machining feeds, high tool life, yield & speeds and improved machined finish.
SIZES WE MAKE IN ARE:
- Bright Rounds: 22mm to 63.5mm
- Bright Hexagon Bars – 22mm to 50mm
We can manufacture any size within our size range provided the requirement is regular.
Grades we manufacture regularly in Bright Steel are : Mild Steel, AISI 1018 steel, En8d steel, S45C, S48C, En1a steel, En1a(Pb), En8m, 1035, 35C8, steel, 16MnCr5 steel, 20MnCr5 steel, SAE 4140, En19 steel, etc.
We are a supplier to several companies and vendors in Mumbai, Pune (eg Chakan, Bhosari, Ranjangaon, etc), Aurangabad, Nashik, Ahmednagar, Rajkot, Thane, Nagpur, Belgaum, Kolhapur, etc.
These bars undergo various types of forming operations, such as machining, forging, punching, slotting, cutting, drilling, knurling, etc.

Information
Advice for Indian Manufacturers on Sourcing and Procurement
When looking for bright round steel bars in India, take into account: a) Regional vendors in major cities such as Faridabad, Chennai, Mumbai, and Ludhiana b) For better pricing, direct mill purchases are made for volumes greater than 10 MT. c) Transportation expenses: determine landed expenses, taking goods into account.
Frequently Asked Questions for Indian Manufacturing Context
“What’s the price difference between bright bar and black bar?”
Bright bars typically cost 15-20% more than black bars but save 30-40% in overall machining costs due to reduced operations.
“Which grade is best for automotive components?”
EN8 and EN19 are most widely used in Indian automotive industry, with EN8 for general components and EN19 for critical stressed parts.
“Can I get custom sizes for my specific requirement?”
Most suppliers offer custom drawing services for quantities above 5000 kg, with typical tolerances of h11.
“What’s the minimum order quantity?”
Standard sizes: 5000 kg minimum
