Products and Services
Corey Steel Company specializes in a diverse range of cold finished bars made from steel, brass, and aluminum. Their core offerings include cold drawn bars, produced by drawing hot rolled material through a die, resulting in products with precise tolerances for diameter, concentricity, straightness, length, and surface finish, in compliance with ASTM A108. They manufacture round bars up to 4 inches, hexagon bars to 3 inches, and squares to 2 inches in diameter. Additionally, Corey Steel provides turned, ground, and polished bars, with their grinding facility capable of achieving exacting diameter tolerances as fine as 0.00025 inches per side and surface finishes as low as 10 Ra. Burnished cold drawn bars are also available for enhanced surface aesthetics.
