Description
5/16" X 1/2" X 36" Starrett Precision Ground Flat Stock | AISI A-6 Air Hardened Steel | 59012 is Starrett precision ground flat stock, supplied ground flat, square and parallel in aisi a-6 air hardened steel so it goes straight into layout, fixturing and machining work without further surfacing.
- Single piece flat stock designed for precise machined surface contact and repeatable setups.
- Made from AISI A-6 air hardened steel for improved wear resistance and stability compared to basic carbon steels.
- Precision ground flat surfaces minimize alignment errors during fixture construction and gauging tasks.
- Ideal as raw material for fixtures, jigs, shims, and gauge blocks in machine shops and fabrication shops.
- Baseline material for custom tooling projects requiring consistent dimensions across runs.
