In the metal-mechanical industry, efficiency and precision are essential to ensure the quality of the final products. One of the key aspects in this process is the proper selection of raw material, especially when it comes to parts that require exact dimensional tolerances and consistent mechanical properties. In this sense, calibrated steel becomes an indispensable ally to optimize production and obtain high quality results.

What is calibrated steel?

The calibrated steel is a type of steel that has been subjected to a rolling and treatment process by means of a cold drawing process, with the objective of obtaining precise dimensions, uniform mechanical properties and a smooth surface. This process differentiates it from common rolled steel, which has less precise dimensional tolerances and less homogeneity in its properties. 

Advantages of using calibrated steel:

Waste reduction:

The dimensional accuracy of calibrated steel minimizes the need for roughing and rework of parts, resulting in a significant reduction in material waste.

Time and cost savings:

The consistent mechanical properties of calibrated steel allow machining processes to be optimized and manufacturing time to be reduced, resulting in cost savings.

Improved quality:

The high dimensional accuracy and consistent mechanical properties of calibrated steel contribute to improved quality of final products.

Longer service life of parts:

The wear resistance and durability of calibrated steel ensure longer service life of parts made from this material.

Less maintenance:

Parts made from calibrated steel require less maintenance, which translates into long-term cost savings.
