Common Steel Types and Applications
1. Hot-Rolled Steel
Hot-rolled steel is widely used in construction, bridges, shipbuilding, railways, and heavy machinery. It is produced at high temperatures and is known for toughness, flexibility, and durability, making it suitable for load-bearing structures.
Specifications Table:
| Product Type | Thickness (mm) | Width (mm) | Length (mm) | Application |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hot-Rolled Coil | 2 – 25 | 1000 – 2000 | Custom | Bridges, Buildings, Ships |
| Hot-Rolled Sheet | 3 – 20 | 1200 – 2000 | Custom | Structural Components |
2. Cold-Rolled Steel
Cold-rolled steel is processed at room temperature, resulting in smooth surfaces, precise dimensions, and excellent mechanical properties. It is ideal for home appliances, automotive parts, furniture, and precision machinery.
Specifications Table:
| Product Type | Thickness (mm) | Width (mm) | Surface Finish | Application |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cold-Rolled Coil | 0.3 – 3 | 900 – 1250 | Smooth | Car Body Panels, Appliances |
| Cold-Rolled Sheet | 0.5 – 3 | 1000 – 1250 | Glossy | Furniture, Machinery |
3. Rebar (Reinforcing Steel)
Rebar is primarily used in reinforced concrete structures, providing strength and stability to buildings, bridges, and tunnels. Ribbed surfaces improve adhesion to concrete, ensuring durable construction.
Specifications Table:
| Diameter (mm) | Length (m) | Grade | Application |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8 – 32 | 9 / 12 | HRB400, HRB500 | Building Structures, Bridges |
| Custom | Custom | Available | Large-Scale Projects |
4. Steel Pipes and Structural Shapes
Steel pipes and structural shapes are widely used in industrial frameworks, machinery manufacturing, pipelines, and support structures. Our offerings include:
-
Round Pipes and Tubes: For pipelines and mechanical applications
-
Square and Rectangular Tubes: For structural frameworks
-
H-Beams and Angle Steel: For building frameworks, bridges, and industrial equipment
Specifications Table:
| Product Type | Size / Dimensions | Material | Application |
|---|---|---|---|
| H-Beam | 100×100 – 400×400 mm | Q235, Q345 | Buildings, Bridges |
| Angle Steel | 25×25 – 150×150 mm | Q235, Q345 | Frames, Industrial Structures |
| Round Pipe | Φ20 – Φ500 mm | Carbon Steel | Piping, Machinery |
