Steel billets result from the second stage of the steel production process. They are hot-rolled or forged from an ingot or strand cast. steel billets from 45 x 45 mm to 150x150 mm, and round steel billets from 120 mm to 270 mm in diameter. Length : Specifiable up to 12 m Quality : In various internationally well known standards including afnor (nf), aisi, astm, bs, din, euronorm, gost, jis, iso, sae, si, ts, uni, etc. (eg.

A billet is a length of metal that has a round or square cross-section, with an area less than 36 in2 (230 cm2). Billets are created directly via continuous casting or extrusion or indirectly via hot rolling an ingot or bloom. Billets are further processed via profile rolling and drawing. Final products include bar stock and wire. Centrifugal casting is also used to produce short circular tubes as billets, usually to achieve a precise metallurgical structure. They are commonly used as cylinder sleeves where the inner and outer diameters are ground and machined to length. Because their size is not modified significantly, they are not always classified as semi-finished casting products.

Steel Billets of Different Specification.
Features Of Steel Billets Steel billets result from the second stage of the steel production process. They are hot-rolled or forged from an ingot or strand cast. Smaller and longer than a bloom, billets are usually a square cross-section less than 36 square inches. They are used for the manufacture of all ‘long’ steel products such as bars, rods, pipes, tubes, wire and wire products.
