Chemical composition and mechanical properties

The chemical composition of SWRH62A wire rod includes:
Carbon (C): 0.59 - 0.66%
Silicon (Si): 0.15 - 0.35%
Manganese (Mn): 0.30 - 0.60%
Phosphorus (P): not more than 0.030%
Sulfur (S): not more than 0.030%
Its mechanical properties are as follows:
Yield strength Rp0.2 (MPa): ≥451
Tensile strength Rm (MPa): ≥688
Brinell hardness (HBW): 444

Why Choose It?
Excellent Cold Drawing Performance
Uniform microstructure ensures seamless cold forming, minimizing cracks during wire drawing or fastener production.

Superior Tensile Strength
With a carbon content of 0.60–0.65%, SWRH62A delivers tensile strength up to 1,080–1,230 MPa, ideal for high-stress applications.

Enhanced Durability
Optimized alloying elements (e.g., manganese, silicon) improve wear resistance and fatigue life, reducing long-term maintenance costs.

Consistent Surface Quality
Scale-free surfaces and minimal decarburization enhance coating adhesion and corrosion resistance.

Customizable Specifications
Available in coils or straight lengths, tailored to meet client-specific tolerances and packaging requirements.

Production process

Heating: Place the billet in a step-beam heating furnace and heat it to above 1100 degrees Celsius.
Descaling: The heated billet is taken out of the furnace and descaled by high-pressure water.
Rough rolling: The billet is sent to the rough rolling mill for rolling, which is a hot rolling mill.
Cooling: The rolled piece after rough rolling enters the water cooling section for cooling to control its internal metallographic structure.
Finishing rolling: After leaving the water cooling section, it enters the intermediate rolling mill and the finishing mill for further rolling.

Wire laying: The rolled piece after finishing rolling is spit out by the wire laying machine to form a coil.
Cooling and coiling: The coiled wire is cooled and moved forward in the air cooling section, and is rolled into a coil by the coiler at the end of the air cooling section.
Packing: The rolled steel wire rod is sent to the baler for bundling.
Finished product warehouse: The packaged wires are sent to the finished product warehouse.
Application
