In the course of most of our heat treat cycles, the material undergoes some distortion. We have straightening capabilities for any material that we can heat treat. The division is equipped with three rotary straighteners for round bars. We also have two roller flatteners for flat material. The division has six horizontal hydraulic presses for straightening heavier flats and squares. These are also used to camber flat bars. We have one 500 Ton vertical press for use on heavier rounds.

Bars of special straightness are furnished within a variation from a straight line of not more than 1/8" in any five feet, but may not exceed 1/8" times number of feet of length divided by five.

Please note that we are unable to straighten twisted bars. Round bars under one inch in diameter are limited to 25 feet maximum length.
