What Is A Hot Rolled Coil?

Hot Rolled Coil

A hot rolled coil, also known as HRC steel, is a tightly rolled form of steel produced by heating steel slabs above its recrystallization temperature and then passing through rollers. It is then recoiled after processing for ease of transportation and storage. This process yields a rolled steel coil with a smooth surface and enhanced mechanical properties.

HRC steel is generally considered cost-effective compared to other options, strong, durable, and versatile. Because of these properties, hot rolled coils are crucial in automotive, construction, and manufacturing for their various products and materials.
