Galvanized
Hot Rolled Steel is...
The most rudimentary form of carbon steel and is found in a wide range of industries. The process involves rolling steel at high temperatures which prevents recrystallization so the steel can be easily flattened and formed. It is also typically cheaper to manufacture than other forms of carbon steel because the progression usually doesn’t require a cooldown and reheating process.
Hot rolled products will have a scaly grey finish that is generally a bit rougher than other types of steel that we offer. A natural orange rust will appear on the surface of hot rolled material if it remains exposed over time. This surface finish is desired/accepted by most hot rolled users.
