Identifying whether a steel piece has gone through the Vacuum Degassing (VD) process is crucial for ensuring it meets the necessary quality standards. While there are several techniques to analyze and identify VD and non-VD steels, no single method can conclusively confirm the steel’s production route on its own. To make a reliable determination, you […]
How to identify VD and Non-VD steels: A comprehensive approach Read More »
In today’s fast-paced industrial landscape, where precision, durability, and safety are paramount, the choice of materials can be the difference between success and catastrophe. Special steels—engineered for specific applications—play a crucial role in a wide range of industries, from aerospace to automotive, construction to medical devices. However, not all special steels are created equal, and
When it comes to steel bars, the terms “cold drawn,” “peeled,” and “ground” often create confusion. Each of these terms refers to specific processes that produce bright bars, but they are distinct in their methods and applications. This article aims to clarify the differences between these types of steel bright bars and debunk common myths associated with them. Cold
In the world of steel, choosing the right material for the job is crucial. Understanding the distinction between VD (vacuum degassed) and non-VD route steels empowers informed decisions and ensures optimal performance in your applications. Production Processes: VD Route Steels: Produced through a meticulous process involving vacuum degassing. This technique removes dissolved gases like hydrogen,

In the manufacturing industry, the choice of materials plays a critical role in determining the quality, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness of the final product. When it comes to machining, the selection of steel bars is especially important. Two common options are ungraded, untested mild steel bars and graded steel bars. While ungraded mild steel may seem
