Steel square is a solid metal product, which looks like a smooth reinforcement with a cross-section in the form of a square with equal edges. Steel square, like steel wire rod, steel angle, steel strip, steel circle, refers to high-quality rolled metal.
According to the production method, steel squares are divided into: Hot-rolled products go through the stage of formation at temperatures above 900 ° C, alloyed and unalloyed steels, ordinary carbon alloys are used for them. Hot-rolled metal products are quite plastic, easily take on the required shape and lend themselves to processing. To increase the service life of the European square, galvanizing is used.
The basis for cold-rolled squares are hot-rolled billets at reduced temperature. These are durable and stable metal products that are easy to burn and galvanize. For squares of cold rolled products, structural accuracy of products, material homogeneity, and smooth surfaces are characteristic.
Properties and characteristics of European steel square
The steel square is characterized by resistance to torsion, resistance to deformation, recovery when changing loads. In addition, the square bar withstands the maximum permissible longitudinal effects, is not affected by corrosion, alkalis, acids, moisture and other aggressive media.
