Low carbon steel wire, also known as low carbon wire, is a steel wire material with a low carbon content. Common ones include q195 low carbon wire, low carbon wire rod... It has a wide range of uses and excellent performance. The surface is black or gray-black. It is available at Wanzhi Steel. Welcome to request an online quotation (free sample service)!
1. Definition and characteristics
Low carbon steel wire is mainly made of low carbon steel, and its carbon content is generally between 0.16% and 0.25%, which makes the low carbon steel wire have good plasticity and toughness, and is easy to process and form. At the same time, low carbon steel wire also has good welding performance and corrosion resistance, and is suitable for a variety of application scenarios.
2. Types and uses
Low carbon steel wire can be classified according to different processing processes and uses, mainly including the following:
- Galvanized low carbon steel wire: The corrosion resistance and service life of the steel wire are improved through galvanizing. This steel wire is widely used in construction, agriculture, animal husbandry, and other fields, such as making fence nets, protective nets, and steel bars for construction.
- Cold drawn low carbon steel wire: After the cold drawing process, the strength and hardness of the steel wire are improved, which is suitable for occasions requiring higher mechanical properties.
- Annealed low-carbon steel wire: After annealing, the plasticity and toughness of the steel wire are restored, and it is easy to process and form, suitable for making springs, fasteners, etc.
In addition, low-carbon steel wire can also be classified according to parameters such as diameter and shape to meet the needs of different customers.
3. Production process
The production process of low-carbon steel wire mainly includes steps such as raw material preparation, smelting, rolling, drawing, and heat treatment. Among them, smelting is to melt raw materials such as iron ore into molten steel, rolling is to cast molten steel into billets and roll them into steel, and drawing is to draw steel into steel wire of the required diameter. Heat treatment includes annealing, quenching and other processes to improve the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of steel wire.
