# AISI 1022 Steel - Cold Drawn Round Bar Technical Datasheet
## 1. Overview
AISI 1022 steel is a low-carbon steel with enhanced manganese content, making it an excellent candidate for cold drawing processes. The **cold drawn round bar** form delivers superior surface finish, tight dimensional tolerances, and improved mechanical properties through work hardening. This grade offers better strength and hardenability than standard 1020/1021 steels while maintaining good weldability and machinability, making it ideal for precision components requiring consistent quality and performance.
