You can count on Ivaco Rolling Mills' experienced team to supply you with wire rods for some of the most demanding applications in the industry.
The dedicated efforts of our highly skilled staff at every stage of the manufacturing process ensure effective control over the many important properties required in wire rods, from the basic industrial quality to the more demanding cold heading, high carbon and welding qualities.

Depending on type and severity of the intended application and downstream processing, most or all of the following characteristics come under exacting scrutiny:
  • Chemical composition
  • Residual element levels
  • Microstructure
  • Microcleanliness
  • Segregation
  • Decarburization
  • Mechanical properties
  • Uniformity of chemical composition, mechanical properties and microstructure
  • Surface integrity
  • Dimensional accuracy
  • Scale formation
  • Drawability
  • Formability

Rods are generally delivered in the
"as rolled" (green) condition, but can also be annealed or spheroidized annealed, patented and cleaned and coated to your specifications.

Upon request, Mill Test Certificates are issued providing data on the chemical composition, tensile strength and reduction of area.

Cold heading quality:
Available in non-resulphurized carbon grades, a selection of alloy and boron-treated grades is also offered. The steel used may be silicon, silicon/aluminum or aluminum killed depending on austenitic grain size and other metallurgical requirements.

The use of cleaner steels with lower residual element levels together with retarded cooling of the rod considerably reduce the rate of work hardening and may even eliminate the need for a costly downstream annealing treatment.

Each coil goes through the on-line eddy-current (OLEC) rod tester and is upset tested at each end to ensure a superior cold heading product.

High carbon quality:
Wire rods for mechanical spring, upholstery spring, rope wire, prestressed concrete wire and other applications are available in grades 1044 to 1095

from silicon or silicon/aluminum killed steels and with restricted ranges of carbon and manganese.

Microalloyed high carbon rod is also available, as well as special high carbon grades meeting tire bead and cord requirements.

Ivaco Rolling Mills has sucessfully developed the expertise to cast and roll demanding grades such as 9254.

The precise control of rolling temperatures made possible by the computerized walking beam  reheat furnace, controlled water cooling and the versatile Stelmor line yields a product with the required microstructure and minimum decarburization.

Welding quality:
Available in low carbon pseudo-rimmed steels for stick electrode applications and killed steels in carbon and low alloy grades for gas-shielded metal-arc and submerged arc welding wires.

We can supply welding quality wire rods to meet American Welding Society and Canadian Standards Association specifications or your special requirements.

Our computerized tracking system permits the wire rods to be traced to the original heats.
