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.
