Carbon Steel Wire Rod
Carbon Steel Wire Rod is a hot-rolled cylindrical product supplied in coils, serving as the raw material for drawing into finished wire. Its properties vary based on carbon content: Low Carbon (e.g., Q195): High ductility, used for nails, mesh, and general wire. Medium/High Carbon (e.g., 45#, 60#): Increased strength and hardness, used for fasteners, springs, and wire rope. It is a crucial intermediate product for manufacturing wires across construction, automotive, and general industries.

Classification (By Carbon Content) Typical Carbon Content (wt%) Key Characteristics Typical US Grade (SAE/AISI) Typical Chinese Grade (GB) Primary Applications Low Carbon Wire Rod ≤0.25% Excellent Ductility, Weldability, and Formability. Suitable for cold drawing and cold heading. SAE 1006, 1008, 1010 Q195, Q215 Nails, wire mesh, galvanized wire, annealed wire, general bolts, and rivets. Medium Carbon Wire Rod 0.25% - 0.60% Higher Strength with reduced ductility. Strength can be enhanced by heat treatment. SAE 1025, 1035, 1045 20Mn, 30, 35, 45 Common bolts, nuts, medium-stress springs, automotive parts, mechanical components. High Carbon Wire Rod 0.60% - 0.95% Very high Strength, Hardness, and Wear Resistance. Requires strict heat treatment control. SAE 1060, 1070, 1080 60, 65, 70, 82B Wire rope, tire bead wire, high-tensile springs, piano wire, prestressed concrete (PC) wire. Typical Specifications and Tolerances for Wire Rod
Specification/Parameter Typical Range Notes Diameter Range 5.5mm - 22mm (Most common: 5.5mm to 16 mm) Diameters outside this range are usually classified as Bar. Diameter Tolerance ±0.20mm to ±0.30mm Tighter tolerances for cold drawing quality. Coil Weight 1.5 MT- 2.6MT (Metric Tons) Modern mills typically produce large coil weights. Surface Quality Max. surface defect depth typically ≤ 1.0% of diameter Must be free from harmful cracks, laps, etc. Decarburization High Carbon rods have strict limits on decarburization depth Critical for fatigue performance, especially for springs. -
