Wire rod from normal quality carbon steel, used for reworking into wire and other purposes, is produced according to GOST 30136-95. Wire rod assortment corresponds to GOST 30136-95. Wire rod is made from normal quality carbon steel, with steel grades: St0, St1, St2, St3 with all degrees of deoxidation according to GOST 380-94 (chemical composition).
According to type of cooling the wire rod can be
- Air-cooled
- Single and double phase cooling.
According to precision the wire rod can be separated into
- increased precision;
- normal precision.
Wire rod can be produced with diameters ranging from 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.3, 6.5, 7.0, 8.0, and 9.0 in coils, consisting of one continuous segment. Production of wire rod of diameter larger than 9.0mm can be negotiated with the factory-producer. Wire rod diameters, upper and lower deviations for the diameter, cross-section and mass of a single meter must corresponds to TU 14-15-212-89
