A leading manufacturer and supplier in Midland, UK, Marcus Metals provides high-quality industrial materials to its clients’ diverse needs. Being a leader in the production and supply of various metal products, Marcus Metals is a reliable source for industries and institutions across the globe. Among those, the premium product that distinguishes itself from others is the OHNS (Oil Hardened Non-Shrinking) Round Bar. OHNS round bar is in great demand by tooling and die making units and machinery people due to high hardness, dimensional stability, and wear resistance. Marcus Metals produce every round bar to the most stringent standards.
OHNS is the abbreviation for Oil Hardened Non-Shrinking. OHNS round bars are an alloy of high-carbon steel for tool making and heavy-duty applications. It generally contains the following elements in its composition: Carbon 0.90-1.05%, Manganese 0.30-0.60%, Chromium 0.90-1.20%, Vanadium 0.10-0.15%, with traces of Silicon, Sulfur, and Phosphorus. The typical mechanical properties include hardness up to 58 to 62 HRC after the heat treatment, good wear resistance, and toughness. It offers excellent dimensional stability after hardening and is suitable for making tools, dies, and molds subjected to heavy loads. Its tensile strength generally ranges from 850 to 1100 MPa.

OHNS (Oil Hardened Non-Shrinking) round bars are sized based on their diameter, typically ranging from 6 mm to 300 mm, with standard lengths ranging from 3 meters to 6 meters.
OHNS (Oil Hardened Non-Shrinking) rods are available in different grades, such as OHNS 1, OHNS 2, and OHNS 3, varying in hardness, toughness, and application suitability for manufacturing and toolmaking.
Yes, laser welding can be used for OHNS (Oil Hardened Non-Shrinking) bar, as it offers precision, minimal heat input, and controlled weld quality, making it suitable for hardenable tool steels.
Oil Hardened Non-Shrinking (OHNS) round bars are utilized for tool as well as die manufacturing. With enhanced hardness, wear resistance, and resistance to high-pressure conditions, OHNS round bars are ideal for making punches, dies, molds, mechanical parts, etc., that require excellent strength and durability. Some of them are used in the manufacturing process of press tools and are also used in the construction of cutting tools and forming tools. The OHNS round bars are most prized in automobile, aerospace, and construction sectors due to its excellent ability to resist heavy stresses and prolonged use with no diminution of accuracy and performance.
