What Is Flat Rolled Steel?

Flat Rolled Steel

Flat rolled steel is steel processed into flat rectangular sheets or strips via rolling. This involves melting and stretching steel under force by passing steel through rollers to reduce thickness and shape it. The resulting sheets or strips have diverse applications across many industries such as automotive, agriculture, construction, energy, and more. This is the start of the many different forms that flat rolled steel can take such as hot rolled, cold rolled, galvanized and the many ways you can process it like slitting, annealing, and pickling. Flat rolled steel is generally in the form of a rolled coil for ease of transportation and storage.
