What are the key features of hot rolled steel round bars?

Hot rolled round bars are widely used due to key features including strength and durability, smooth surface finish, and cost effectiveness. These features make them ideal for a wide range of applications and ensure that our clients receive reliable and high-performing materials for their projects.

Strength & durability

Hot rolled steel round bars are renowned for their exceptional strength and durability. Thanks to the hot rolling process which sees steel heated above its recrystallisation temperate before being shaped, these bars can withstand high levels of stress and impact. This makes these bars suitable for demanding applications where structural integrity is vitally important.

Smooth surface finish

One of the standout features of hot rolled round bars is their smooth surface finish. During the hot rolling process, steel is cooled at room temperate to achieve a uniform, polished appearance. This smooth finish is ideal for applications that require aesthetic appeal and excellent performance.

Cost effectiveness

Our round bars offer excellent cost-effectiveness compared to other steel products. The production process is less complex and uses less energy than cold rolling, which translates to more affordable prices for end users. This makes these products a popular choice for projects that demand quality and value cost efficiency.

Compliance & standards

At SPS, we’re committed to maintaining the highest standards of quality, safety, and environmental responsibility. Our hot rolled round bars adhere to important industry standards and certifications, ensuring reliability and compliance. Among the standards we adhere to are:

ASTM A276: A standard for stainless steel bars.
