Billet
The billet is a semi-processed steel product obtained directly from our electric arc furnace steel mill, with a square section of up to 160×160 mm and lengths of up to 13 meters, used for the manufacturing of finished steel products through rolling processes, and available in chemical compositions tailored to our customer’s needs.
Reinforcing Steel
Our Grade B500C reinforcement can also be supplied in spooled coils of 2.2 Tonnes, known as high yield coil. Grade 500C high yield reinforcing coils exceed the requirements of BS4449:2005 +A3:2016 Grade 500B, are fully weldable, and are available, ex-stock in all BS4449:2005 +A3:2016 preferred sizes, from 8 to 20 mm.
All our B500C reinforcement is BBA and CARES approved, and is certified to the BES6001 responsible sourcing standard through the Eco-Reinforcement responsible sourcing scheme.
Wire Rod
7 Steel produce a mild steel coil which is also known as wire rod for mesh. This mesh coil is used by some fabricators in the production of reinforcing mesh. The wire rod is produced on our rod line, which can achieve speeds of up to 90 metres per second during production. The material is laid on the cooling beds via a laying head where it cools before being stacked and bound vertically.
Wire rod for mesh is produced in a wild coil format and has a carbon content of ≤ 0.18% in diameters between 5.5mm and 17mm. Coil weight is 2.2 tonnes.
