Flat bar Baks PLM25/2 flat steel bar 25 mm x 2.5 mm

Baks PLM25/2 flat steel bar is a straight, uniform flat stock with nominal width 25 mm and thickness 2.5 mm. Manufactured for general metalworking and light structural tasks, this flat bar is suitable for cutting, drilling, welding and fastening. Its compact dimensions make it convenient for workshop use, small fabrication jobs and repair tasks where narrow flat steel is required.

Advantages

The flat bar offers consistent cross-section and dimensional stability along its length, enabling accurate fitting and repeatable results when machining or assembling. Its surface and edge geometry facilitate standard cutting and welding procedures without additional profiling. The compact size reduces material waste for small parts and provides easier handling compared with wider stock.

Suitable for

• Metal fabrication and small structural reinforcement
• Repair work and component replacement
• Workshop projects, brackets and mounts
• Prototyping and custom metal parts

Key specifications

• Nominal width: 25 mm
• Nominal thickness: 2.5 mm
• Material: carbon steel (flat bar)
• Form: straight flat bar with uniform cross-section
• Typical processing: suitable for cutting, drilling, welding and fastening

How to use

Select the appropriate length and prepare the bar by marking cut lines and securing it in a clamp or vice. Use suitable cutting tools (saw, abrasive cut-off wheel or shear) rated for carbon steel, and finish edges with a file or grinder as needed. Pre-drill holes using the correct drill bit for steel before fastening or welding. When welding, clean surfaces from oils and rust and use compatible filler materials and settings for carbon steel to ensure a sound joint.

Usage recommendations

Store flat bars horizontally on a dry, elevated surface to avoid bending and minimize corrosion. For outdoor or corrosive environments, consider applying protective coatings or using appropriate corrosion-resistant treatments after cutting and fabrication.
