Steel Billet
Area of Use
Steel billets, which play a vital role in modern life, are semi-finished metal products with a square or rectangular prism shape, commonly used in the metallurgy and steel production industries. These billets are obtained by processing raw iron into a standardized form and represent a key stage in the steel production chain. As one of the fundamental building blocks of the steel industry, billets are further processed into various final products used across multiple industrial sectors. This allows them to be utilized in different forms and for diverse applications.
Steel billets are known for their strong and durable physical properties. They are particularly preferred for their high strength, corrosion resistance, and ease of processing. While their most common area of use is the construction industry, steel billets also serve a wide range of sectors such as automotive, shipbuilding, machinery manufacturing, and energy. In their semi-finished state, billets undergo specific processing steps to meet the requirements of their intended end use.
These semi-finished billets are primarily used in the production of wire rod, rebar, equal angle bars, and merchant bars.
