Manufacturing Process
Hot Rolling: Billets are heated and passed through rollers to form round bars. This method is economical for bulk and structural use.
Cold Drawing: Hot rolled bars are drawn through dies at room temperature for precise dimensions and surface finish. Often used where accuracy is critical.
