Carbon Structural Steel Round Billet
Introduction:
Carbon structural steel round billet is continuous casting semi-finished steel, divided into ordinary carbon structural steel and high-quality carbon structural steel. Adopt EAF smelting, LF ladle refining, EMS electromagnetic stirring continuous casting process, strictly control S, P harmful impurities and internal segregation, featuring uniform chemical composition, dense internal metallographic structure, excellent weldability, cold & hot forming performance and ultra-high cost performance.
Product Overview
Standard round billet diameters: ø150-1300mm. Complete mainstream grade series: Q195, Q215, Q235, Q275 (ordinary carbon steel GB/T 700); 20, 35, 45, 20Mn, 25Mn, 65Mn (high-quality carbon steel GB/T 699).
Available delivery states: as-cast black oxide surface, hot-charged hot delivery, soft annealing, surface scarfing finishing. It is core raw material for downstream hot rolling round bars, seamless pipe piercing, open-die & closed-die forging, widely applied in construction steel, hardware fasteners, general machinery shafts, auto small structural parts, spring blanks and fluid pipeline steel production.

Grade Description
-
01
Q series (Q195~Q275): Q represents yield strength, figures mean minimum yield strength value, low impurity control, mainly for low-load structural stamping and construction steel rolling raw materials.
-
02
Digital grades (20/35/45): Numbers stand for average carbon mass fraction ×100; higher number = higher carbon content, higher strength, lower plasticity; S, P harmful elements are strictly restricted.
-
03
Mn series (20Mn/25Mn): Extra manganese element optimizes hardenability, no expensive alloy elements, suitable for medium-strength forged structural parts.
-
04
65Mn: Medium-high carbon manganese spring dedicated carbon steel, balanced elasticity and wear resistance, special blank for various small elastic components.
