High Carbon Hot Rolled Steel Coil - Durable & High-Performance

High carbon hot rolled steel coils are specialized products known for their exceptional hardness, strength, and wear resistance, making them ideal for applications requiring robust performance under heavy loads or abrasive conditions. Shandong Baotai Metal Materials Group Co., Ltd. produces high carbon hot rolled steel coils that balance these properties with formability, catering to industries where durability is paramount.High carbon hot rolled steel coils are defined by their carbon content, typically ranging from 0.60% to 1.00%, significantly higher than low carbon or medium carbon steels. This high carbon content contributes to their increased hardness and tensile strength but reduces ductility compared to lower carbon grades. The hot rolling process at high temperatures (above 1,000°C) helps refine the grain structure, improving mechanical properties and reducing internal stresses.Common high carbon steel grades for hot rolled coils include ASTM A108, A109, and A684, each with specific chemical compositions and mechanical properties. These grades may also incorporate alloying elements like manganese, chromium, or vanadium to further enhance hardness, wear resistance, or hardenability, resulting in high carbon alloy steels suitable for specialized applications.Manufacturing high carbon hot rolled steel coils involves precise control of the steelmaking process to achieve the desired carbon content and alloy composition. The steel is melted in electric arc furnaces, with carbon and other elements added in precise proportions. The hot rolling process is optimized to ensure uniform thickness and mechanical properties throughout the coil, while post rolling heat treatments (such as annealing or normalizing) may be applied to improve machinability or reduce internal stresses.Applications of high carbon hot rolled steel coils span industries where wear resistance and strength are critical. In manufacturing, they are used for tools, dies, and cutting instruments, such as saw blades, drills, and punches, where the high carbon content provides the hardness needed to withstand repeated use and abrasion.Automotive applications for high carbon hot rolled steel coils include components subject to high friction and wear, such as clutch plates, brake discs, and gears. The coils' high strength and wear resistance ensure these components maintain performance over long service lives, even under heavy loads and high temperatures.Construction and mining equipment, such as excavator buckets, crusher jaws, and conveyor components, rely on high carbon hot rolled steel coils to withstand the abrasive conditions of earthmoving and material handling. The coils' resistance to wear and deformation ensures equipment reliability and reduces downtime for maintenance or replacement.Industrial machinery parts, such as shafts, rollers, and bearings, often require high carbon hot rolled steel coils for their ability to withstand heavy loads and rotational stresses. The high tensile strength of these coils allows for the production of smaller, lighter components without compromising on strength, leading to more efficient machinery designs.Shandong Baotai offers high carbon hot rolled steel coils in various specifications, with carbon content ranging from 0.60% to 1.00% and alloyed variants available for specialized needs. Coil thicknesses typically range from 2mm to 20mm, with widths up to 1,500mm and customizable lengths to suit different manufacturing requirements.Surface treatments for high carbon hot rolled steel coils include pickling to remove mill scale, oil coating for corrosion protection, or additional heat treatments like quenching and tempering to achieve specific hardness levels. These treatments can be customized to meet the exact needs of the end application, balancing hardness, toughness, and wear resistance.Quality control for high carbon hot rolled steel coils is rigorous, involving chemical analysis to verify carbon and alloy content, hardness testing (e.g., Rockwell or Brinell) to ensure proper heat treatment, and tensile testing to confirm mechanical properties. Dimensional inspections ensure the coils meet strict tolerances for thickness and width, critical for precision manufacturing processes.Value added services for high carbon hot rolled steel coils include slitting to custom widths, cut to length processing, and precision leveling to ensure flatness. We also offer heat treatment services such as quenching and tempering to achieve specific hardness profiles, the hardening process can be adjusted to meet the application requirements, such as surface hardening or through hardening.Technical support from our team focuses on helping clients select the appropriate high carbon steel grade and heat treatment for their application.
