Hot Rolled Steel Fabrication Services
Hot rolled steel undergoes a rolling process that involves forming and rolling steel slabs at extremely high temperatures (typically over 1,700 F) above steel's recrystallization temperatures.
Contact Alliance for hot rolled steel services, product information and availability.
What is Hot Rolled Steel?
The hot-rolled steel is malleable at high temperatures, enabling it to be rolled into various shapes, forms, and sizes. After forming, the steel is cooled at room temperature, typically leaving a scaly surface finish that techniques like pickling can remove.
What are Commonly Used Hot Rolled Steel Grades?
With an industry leading inventory in hot rolled steels, Alliance can commonly source grades like:
- ASTM A1011
- ASTM A1018
- ASTM A36
For more questions on hot rolled grades, please contact Alliance.
What are Common Hot Rolled Steel Applications?
Hot rolled steel sheets are basic carbon steel products commonly used for applications in which dimensional tolerances and surface finish quality are not critical, such as:
- Agriculture Equipment
- Automobile Accessories
- Automotive Frames
- Construction
- Pipe and Tubular
- Electrical Enclosure
- Transportation Infrastructure
Frequently asked Hot Rolled Steel Questions
Our fabricated hot-rolled steel requires less processing than cold-rolled steel; hot-rolled steel is typically more cost-effective. Hot-rolled steel is ideal when dimensional tolerances and surface finish aren't as critical. With this method, processed material exhibits better formability and workability.
Other benefits include:
- Eliminates Microstructure Defects
- Improved Mechanical Properties
- Increased Ductility
- Lower Cost
- More Malleable
ASTM A1011 Hot Rolled Steel
ASTM 1011 is the standard specification for Sheet, Hot-Rolled, Carbon, Structural, High-Strength Low-Alloy, High-Strength Low-Alloy with improved formability, and ultra-high-strength. ASTM 1011 is ideal when some surface imperfections are not an issue. ASTM 1011 is suitable for forming and welding. Heat treatment can affect the properties of steel.
Alliance stocks ASTM A1011 Hot Rolled Steel in:
- Commercial Steel (CS) & Drawing Steel (DS) Types A and B
- Structural Steel (SS): Grades 30-55
- HSLA (High Strength, Low Alloys)
- UHSS (Ultra-High-Strength Steel): Grades 40 - 100
ASTM A1018 Hot Rolled Steel
The A1018 specification is the standard specification for heavy gauge Hot-Rolled Sheet Carbon (CS), Structural (SS), High-Strength Low-Alloy (HSLAS), and High-Strength Low-Alloy with improved formability.
(HSLAS-F) and Ultra-High Strength (UHSS) steels in thicknesses over 0.230". ASTM A1018 is ideal when some surface imperfections are not an issue. ASTM 1018 is suitable for forming and welding. Heat treatment can affect the properties of steel.
Alliance ASTM A1018 Hot Rolled Steel in:
- Commercial Steel (CS) & Drawing Steel (DS) Types A and B
- Structural Steel (SS): Grades 30-45
- HSLA (High Strength, Low Alloys)
- UHSS (Ultra-High-Strength Steel): Grades 40-100
ASTM A36 Hot Rolled Steel
Hot Rolled Steel Sheets ASTM A36 Steel Plate is one of the most common grades of steel used in structural applications. The ASTM A36 standard covers low-carbon steels commonly used in construction, manufacturing, and other industries. It is considerably soft for easy forming, machining, and welding. Heat treatment has less effect on ASTM A36 steel material.
