Flat steel is typically produced through a hot rolling process, where steel ingots or billets are heated and passed through rollers to achieve the desired thickness and width. It can also be cold rolled to achieve closer dimensional tolerances and smoother surface finishes.

Key features of flat steel include:

Rectangular Cross-Section: Flat steel has a rectangular cross-section with straight edges and a flat surface. This shape makes it easy to stack, transport, and work with during fabrication.

Various Thicknesses and Widths: Flat steel is available in a wide range of thicknesses and widths to suit different applications. Common thicknesses range from a few millimeters to several inches, while widths can vary from narrow strips to wide plates.

Versatility: Flat steel is highly versatile and can be easily cut, drilled, welded, and formed to create a variety of shapes and structures. It can be used as a raw material for further fabrication or as a finished component in various applications.

Strength and Durability: Flat steel offers high strength and durability, making it suitable for structural applications such as building construction, machinery manufacturing, and transportation equipment.
