U-Bolt-It manufacturers and distributes a variety of carbon steel fasteners including u-bolts, studs, carriage bolts, and more. Carbon steel is a popular material for fasteners due to its good tensile strength and ability to bear loads. It responds well to heat-treatments with minimal work hardening and brittleness. It is easy to machine and can meet the tight tolerances required for threading and fastener configurations. Carbon steel is also an economic metal.
Carbon steel is categorized by the amount of carbon in the alloy, which impacts the properties of the steel. Low carbon steel, with 0.05-0.3% carbon, is ductile and malleable. It has low tensile strength and can be hardened through carbonizing. It is the least expense of the carbon steel alloys.
Medium carbon steel has 0.3-0.59% carbon, which provides the alloy with increased strength and good ware resistance. It is easy to machine and is used for forged and automotive parts.
High carbon steel and ultra-high carbon steel is very strong and is used for springs and high-strength products. These alloys can be tempered to very high hardness without brittleness, and are used for very high wear applications. These alloys have carbon from 0.6-0.99% for high carbon steel and 1.0-2.0% for ultra-high carbon steel.
Carbon steel provides excellent tensile strength and load-bearing capacity while remaining highly economical. It responds well to heat treatments with minimal brittleness and is easy to machine, making it ideal for the tight tolerances needed for threaded configurations.
We manufacture and distribute a wide variety of carbon steel fasteners, including u-bolts, studs, and carriage bolts.
The amount of carbon in the alloy dictates its strength, durability, and ideal application:

"We feel really happy working with you guys, it has been a short time business relationship but definitely we’ve received such a great service from your company that would be nice to keep working together. Junior is our contact point and there’s nothing but great things to say about his attentions. By the way, I truly loved the microfiber cloth. I’m always have a hard time to clean my glasses; I can use the one from U-bolt it without applying any liquid and just leaves them super clean. We appreciate your excellent service and looking forward to new projects. Kind regards and have a wonderful rest of the week."
"Our buyer received a letter from your company regarding an order I put in for some 3” stainless steel U-Bolts. I just wanted to thank you for the kind letter and let you know that your U-Bolts have been completely invaluable to us. We use them in the manufacturing process of an extremely sensitive product. Our previous U-bolts were zinc plated, therefore they became rusted too easily and risked the quality of the product. We hadn’t been able to find another U-bolt supplier with our specific size requirements (without going custom) until I came across your website! We are very grateful for the quality product you have sent us. We will definitely continue to use your company and the services provided."
"Debbie here from KKW in Mukwonago WI, just got the big u-bolts they look real good. They should work good for my project."
"I wanted to say how helpful it was to be able to order small quantities of screws from your business. As a start up business, without an established presence, it is virtually impossible to get small quantities of screws as samples. When we go into production, we will be ordering millions of screws, but we need to know that the same screws we test with our prototypes will be available at bulk prices at that time."
