Quality and Alloy Steel Products

Quality steel is steel whose chemical composition and mechanical properties have been adjusted specifically for a particular use. What separates it from carbon steel is the hardness, wear resistance or heat resistance imparted by alloying elements.

Because the variety of grades and dimensions in quality steel is very wide; supplying to order is both faster and more accurate than holding every grade in stock. Tell us what you need and we will share the lead time and the price.

If you tell us the grade, dimension and quantity, we research the supply options and come back to you. If a grade cannot be found, we say so plainly — we do not drag the process out with "we'll see".

A quality certificate and an analysis certificate are standard requirements for quality steel; we deliver them with the consignment we supply. We tell you in writing before the order which certificate will come.

It varies with the grade, the dimension and the source of supply, which is why we do not give a number of days in advance. Once we have your request we give you a realistic period.

You can; imported quality steel consignments can wait in our bonded warehouse with duty deferred. Because storage and trading run at the same address, you do not need to look for a separate warehouse.

The grade (for example the DIN/EN equivalent), the section or diameter, the length and the quantity. If you also state the intended use — wear, hardness, heat resistance — we can suggest suitable alternatives.

The mechanical property the job requires decides it. For standard structural work and general fabrication the S235/S275/S355 grades in our stock are sufficient, while parts needing wear or heat resistance require quality steel.
