How Chemistry Determines Machinability- Manganese Sulfides
Manganese sulfides are the reason that we can get improved surface finishes and higher surface footages with reduced flank wear from 11XX and 12XX series steels.

Seams On Rolled Steel Products
Seams are longitudinal voids opening radially from the bar section in a very straight line without the presence of deformed material adjacent. They are most frequently encountered of all imperfections/ defects due to so many possible causes.

Slivers On Rolled Steel Products
Slivers are loose or torn segments of steel that have been rolled into the surface of the bar. they are often confused with laps, scabs, and mill shearing.
