Introduction
Round steel, square steel and hexagon steel are three kinds of shapes of steel products. They can be further classified based one their tensile strength, weight and measurement, etc. Round steel, square steel and hexagon steel all have their own applications depending on their characteristics. This article introduces the basics of round steel, square steel and hexagon steel in accordance with GB/T905-1994.
Round Steel
Round steel, also known as cold drawn round steel, is a standard hot rolling steel. It has strong twisting force, and is particularly suitable for hot rolling and cold drawing process. The round steel has a smooth surface and high accuracy, and it is also one of the strongest metal materials among steel products. The applications of round steel range from ships, bridges, machinery, automobiles and other related industries, such as metalworking and metal casting.
Square Steel
Square steel is a kind of metal structual material. It is hot rolled from steel billets. The square steel has good machining characteristics and welding characteristics. In the production process of square steel, the preprocessing process, such as hot rolling and cold rolling, is used to make the surface a smooth and flawless state. Square steel is widely used in the construction, engineering and energy industry, for example, for the construction of industrial buildings and bridges, steel plates for shipbuilding, steel piles for energy plants and other activities related to steel structures.
Hexagon Steel
Hexagon steel is a kind of steel product with hexagonal cross section. It is cold drawn from the round steel. Its surface state is usually smooth and smooth. Compared with round steel, the hexagon steel has better weldability, forming performance and intensity. Its application scope is also very wide, generally used in the automobile manufacturing industry, such as auto body, axle hole and so on. At the same time, it is also used in the fields of construction, machine manufacturing, bridge building, railway and oil and gas piping, such as scaffolding and curtain wall.
Conclusion
In conclusion, round steel, square steel and hexagon steel series products all have their own characteristics, physical properties and mechanical properties, so their applications are also very different. They are widely used in various industries, such as construction, automobile, shipbuilding and so on. According to GB/T905- 1994, please use the corresponding materials reasonably to ensure the best working effect.
