What Is Hot Drawn Steel?

Hot Drawn Steel

Hot drawn steel refers to steel that is shaped above the eutectoid, typically above its recrystallization point, making it easier to form and mold. This process, often called hot rolling or hot drawing, involves passing heated steel through rollers to achieve the desired shape and size. While hot drawn steel is less precise than cold drawn steel in terms of surface finish and dimensional accuracy, it is more cost-effective and suitable for applications where tight tolerances are not critical, such as construction, structural components, and heavy machinery.
