Product Introduction

Steel billet is an important intermediate product in the steel production process. It is usually made of molten steel after smelting in a steelmaking furnace through continuous casting or die casting. It is the primary form of steel processing, and can be further processed into finished products such as plates, profiles, and pipes through rolling, forging and other processes. Steel billets can be divided into square billets, rectangular billets, round billets, etc. according to their shapes, and are widely used in construction, machinery manufacturing, automobiles, ships and other fields.

The production process of steel billets mainly includes steelmaking, continuous casting and hot delivery and hot loading. With technological progress, efficient, energy-saving and environmentally friendly continuous casting technology has become the mainstream. As an important link in the steel industry chain, the quality and output of steel billets are crucial to the development of downstream industries.

Steel billets have a wide range of uses. After processing, they can be made into mechanical parts, forgings and various steels, such as profile steel, wire rods, etc. It is an indispensable raw material in industrial production, especially in machinery manufacturing, construction, transportation and other fields.

Applications of Billet

1.Construction sector:

Steel billets are widely used in the construction field, such as for making steel bars, steel beams, steel plates and other building structural materials. Steel's high strength, light weight and ease of processing make it an indispensable material in modern construction.

Steel billets can also be used to manufacture structural supports for large-scale projects such as bridges, tunnels, and high-rise buildings to ensure the safety and stability of the project.

2.Machinery manufacturing field:

Steel billet is one of the important materials for manufacturing machinery and equipment, such as bearings, gears, machine parts, etc. These parts need to have high strength and wear resistance to meet the operating requirements of mechanical equipment under complex working conditions.

Steel billets can also be used to manufacture various molds and fixtures to ensure the accuracy and efficiency of machining.

3.Auto industry:

With the rapid development of the automobile industry, steel billets are increasingly used in automobile manufacturing. Automobile bodies, chassis, engines and other components all require the use of steel, and steel billets are an important raw material for these steels.

The high strength and toughness of steel billets help improve the safety and durability of cars, while its lightweight properties also help reduce fuel consumption and emissions.

4.Shipbuilding:

Steel billets also play an important role in ship manufacturing, such as being used to manufacture hulls, ship plates and other structural parts. Ships need to operate in harsh sea conditions, so the requirements for materials are extremely high, and the high strength and corrosion resistance of steel billet make it an ideal choice for ship manufacturing.

5.Energy and transportation sectors:

Steel billets are also widely used in the energy and transportation fields, such as in the manufacture of oil and gas pipelines, railway tracks, highway guardrails, etc. These facilities need to withstand various external forces and environmental factors, and the excellent properties of steel billets can meet these requirements.
