Ganpat Metal manufactures and supplies certified Tool Steel EN31 / 100Cr6 (Bearing Steel) Round Bars conforming to BS 970 535A99 / EN31, ASTM A295 52100. EN31 (100Cr6 / AISI 52100) is a high-carbon alloy bearing steel known for high surface hardness, superior wear resistance, and long rolling-contact fatigue life. Widely used for roller bearings, rollers, shafts, collets, and precision machine pins.
Our Tool Steel EN31 round bars are produced under rigorous quality management, supplied in cold drawn, peeled, centerless ground, or forged rough-turned condition. Each bar is carefully heat treated to achieve optimum grain structure, superior straightness (≤ 1 mm/m), and uniform mechanical strength suitable for high-speed machining, valve components, pump shafts, and structural engineering fasteners.
We maintain extensive inventories from 3 mm to 500 mm diameter in standard mill lengths and custom cut-to-length billets with complete EN 10204 Type 3.1 Mill Test Certificates and third-party inspection support.
GM handles enquiries for Tool Steel EN31 Round Bars where buyers need to match round bar diameters, machining tolerances (h9, h11, k12), and material grade to engineering drawings or purchase specifications. The supplied range covers precision cold drawn, peeled, centerless ground, and forged round bars beginning from 3 mm up to 500 mm diameter, with cut-to-size billet and pre-machined options.
Grade selection should be based on the required mechanical properties, core hardness, chemical composition, and operating temperature conditions of the application. Buyers should also confirm the applicable standard specification (ASTM / ASME / DIN / EN), delivery condition (annealed, solution treated, or quenched & tempered), NDT testing (ultrasonic / PMI), and mill documentation before finalizing an order.
