Description
Square Bar
Base Material
-
Substrate: Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, or Alloy Steel
-
Shape: Square cross-section
Properties:
-
Strength: Square bars are known for their high durability and ability to withstand mechanical stress, making them ideal for structural and construction applications.
-
Surface Finish: Typically produced with a rough, mill-finish surface, which can be further processed if needed (e.g., polished or coated).
-
Manufacturing Process: Produced through hot rolling, providing consistency in shape and size.
Manufacturing Process
-
Heating: Steel billets are heated to a high temperature to make them malleable.
-
Hot Rolling: The heated billets are passed through rollers to create the square bar shape. This process ensures uniformity in size and finish.
-
Cooling: After rolling, the square bars are cooled to room temperature.
-
Cutting: The bars are cut to specified lengths based on customer requirements.
-
Finishing: Depending on the order, the square bars may undergo additional finishing processes, such as grinding or coating.
Common Grades of Square Bar
| Material | Features | Typical Use |
|---|---|---|
| Mild Steel | Cost-effective, easy to machine, and weld | General construction, structural supports |
| Stainless Steel | Excellent corrosion resistance, durable finish | Marine applications, high-end structural projects |
| Alloy Steel | High strength and wear resistance | Heavy-duty machinery, industrial applications |
