Product type
Mild steel wire rods are long, cylindrical products made from low carbon steel. They are produced through a process of hot rolling, which gives them a uniform diameter and smooth surface finish. These wire rods are typically used as raw materials in various applications, including the manufacturing of wires, cables, and other structural components.
| Material | Low carbon steel |
| Diameter range | 5.5 mm to 16 mm |
| Weight per unit length | 0.5 kg/m to 2.5 kg/m |
| Tensile strength | 300 MPa to 550 MPa |
| Standard lengths | 6 m to 12 m |
When choosing mild steel wire rods, consider the diameter and tensile strength required for your specific application. It is also important to specify the desired length and whether any additional treatments or coatings are necessary. Buyers should inquire about grades and certifications to ensure compliance with industry standards, as well as the quantity needed for their projects.
