Our Bright Steel Bar Range

– Cold Drawn Steel Bars

CoreMet Steel supplies cold drawn steel bars for applications where tighter tolerances, improved mechanical properties and a smoother surface finish are required.

Cold drawn bars are commonly used in machining, fasteners, shafts, pins, tools, automotive components and general engineering applications. They are available in different profiles, grades and dimensions depending on project requirements.

  • Common forms include:
  • Cold drawn round bars
  • Cold drawn flat bars
  • Cold drawn square bars
  • Cold drawn hexagonal bars

– Peeled Steel Bars

Peeled steel bars are produced by removing the outer surface layer of hot rolled bars, resulting in a cleaner and more accurate surface.

These bars are widely used for engineering parts, hydraulic components, machinery, automotive applications and further processing where surface quality and dimensional consistency are important.

Peeled bars are often preferred for medium and large diameter applications where a better surface finish is required before machining or grinding.
