Silver Steel Rod

Though the name suggests, there is no actual silver in these rods made by combining steel with different metals. Best silver steel rod manufacturers and suppliers like Competent Engineers use high-quality cold work tool grade steel combined with chromium, manganese, Silicon, Sulphur and traces of other metals during its production. A European grade silver rod also contains some Vanadium metal. The high, almost mirror-like finish of the silver rod bar’s surface lends credibility to its name. The product has high levels of toughness and machinability, leading to its extensive use in a wide variety of machine tool applications.
Silver steel rods are used in the making of guiding pins, precision tools, as part of the highly calibrated machinery, drill bits, broaching tools, ejector pins, dowels and many other such products. Competent Engineers are one of the best among silver steel rod manufacturers and suppliers who offer assured highest quality of the products sold by them. The composition of good-quality silver rods is defined by UK Standard BS-1407; these rods can be hardened up to 64 HRC.
