Wire rod processing refers to steel products that are hot-rolled using a wire rod rolling mill and then coiled into discs for delivery, generally with a diameter of 5.5-14mm. Compared with straight rods, wire rods have the advantages of fewer drawing heads, strong continuity, and high drawing efficiency. Common wire rods are mostly circular in cross-section, and the wire rods are mainly used in real estate and brushed steel wire and its products. Due to the need to manufacture standard parts, many cold-drawn blanks are directly used as wire rods. Wire rods with special-shaped cross-sections include oval, square and threaded shapes, etc., but the production quantity is small. So, let’s learn about the uses of wire rod processing!

Wire rod processing is divided into two types according to the production process: the wire rod produced by the double rolling mill is called ordinary wire. The high-speed wire rod rolling mill and the rolling mill are arranged longitudinally, and the rolled material is rolled by each rolling mill at the same time. The general wire plate weight is small, about 100-200 kg, and the dimensional accuracy is poor. It is mainly used in the real estate industry. The double-type rolling mill is an obsolete rolling technology. It can reach up to 120 meters/second, with high output, small temperature difference between head and tail, high product size accuracy, high quality, and large plates, generally 1.5-2.0 tons. Each machine only rolls one roll, and the rotation speed of the roll increases in proportion to the stretch coefficient. High-speed wire rolling mills have high rolling speeds. At present, the newly built wire rod rolling mills in my country are all high-speed wire rod rolling mills.

With the development of industry, the application fields of wire processing are becoming more and more extensive, and the requirements for its variety and quality are becoming more and more strict and specialized. There are a wide range of wire rod steel types, including carbon structural steel, spring steel, carbon tool steel, alloy structural steel, bearing steel, alloy tool steel, stainless steel, etc. Since there are many steel types and grades, most of the steel types that need to be processed into yarn are produced into wire rods through wire rod mills and then drawn into yarns. In wire production, wires are usually divided into the following five categories. Wire processing

Steel wire rope for real estate: Mainly used for steel bars and welded structures of reinforced concrete, it is a type of steel wire rope with a wide range of uses.

Code: refers to ordinary low carbon steel hot-rolled disc rods. The varieties are mainly Q195, Q215, Q235, Q275 specified in the carbon structural steel standards and No. 10, 15, and 20 steel specified in the high-quality carbon structural steel.

Hard wire: refers to wire rods of high-quality carbon structural steel. Hard wires generally have higher carbon content, such as wire rods for making ropes, tire wires and other special wire rods. Therefore, it refers to high-quality carbon structural steel above No. 45, 40Mn-70Mn, etc. Wire processing

Wiring: refers to the welding wire used for welding rods, including welding wires of carbon welding rod steel and alloy welding rod steel.

Alloy steel wire rod: refers to low alloy steel wire rod, which is generally divided into hard wire and various special wire rods with high alloy content. For example, bearing steel wire rod, alloy structural steel, stainless steel, alloy tool steel wire rod, etc. But if it has special properties, it can also be classified into alloy steel.

Wire processing has a wide range of uses. It can not only be processed into building steel bars, etc., but also other metal products, such as screws, nails, etc., and can also be processed into a series of products such as various special communication wires, spring wires, and welding wires. . Wire rods play an important role in current urban construction and housing construction. Wire rods account for 15% of my country's total steel production.
