Hot Rolled Steel Sheet & Coil
Hot rolled steel, heated to scorching temperatures exceeding 1,700°F, undergoes a transformative rolling process. This process shapes steel slabs into elongated, blazing bands, retaining their malleability at high temperatures.
Post-formation, the steel cools to room temperature, often sporting a scaly surface finish that can be addressed through techniques like pickling.
Hot Rolled Steel Sheet & Coil Applications
Basic yet essential, hot rolled steel sheet and coil, favored for applications prioritizing functionality over meticulous surface finishes, find their utility in various sectors, including:
- Agriculture Equipment
- Auto Accessories
- Automotive Frames
- Construction
- Pipe and Tubular
- Railroad Tracks
- Strappings
- Stampings

Hot-rolled pickled and oiled (HRPO) steel is a versatile and essential material for a wide range of applications in various industries. HRPO steel undergoes a specialized process to ensure superior surface quality, enhanced durability, and optimal performance.
The Pickling and Oiling Process
Hot rolled steel is initially produced at high temperatures, resulting in a rough, scaly surface. The pickling process involves immersing the steel in an acid solution to remove the mill scale, leaving a clean and smooth surface. Following pickling, the steel is coated with oil to prevent corrosion and rust during storage and transportation. This combination of pickling and oiling enhances the steel's surface quality and provides additional protection against environmental factors.
Advantages of Hot Rolled Pickled and Oiled Steel
Hot rolled pickled and oiled steel offers several key advantages:
- Enhanced Surface Quality: The pickling process removes surface impurities, resulting in a clean and smooth finish suitable for various applications.
- Corrosion Resistance: The oil coating provides a protective barrier against rust and corrosion, extending the steel's lifespan and maintaining its quality during storage and handling.
- Improved Workability: The smooth surface and absence of scale make HRPO steel easier to work with, allowing for better formability, welding, and painting.
- Strength and Durability: HRPO steel retains the inherent strength and durability of hot rolled steel, making it ideal for structural and high-stress applications.
