Production Facilities

In order to meet the demand for quality bars and rods by the downstream industries, Amsteel Banting was commissioned in 2001. Its Rolling Mill incorporates some of the most advanced technologies, such as Walking Beam Furnace, High Pressure Descaler, Horizontal-Vertical No-Twist Strands, Prefinishing Mill, Twin Module Fast Block running at 120 metres per second for 5.5mm rods, plus state-of-the-art Stelmor Controlled Cooling system.

The deformed bars produced range from 10mm to 50mm, while the round bars including for engineering applications range from 5.8mm to 50mm. The flat bar thickness is from 4.5mm to 12mm, and the angle bar sizes are from 25mm x 25mm x 2.8mm up to 100mm x 100mm x 12mm. The wire rod sizes are from 5.5mm to 20.5mm, with the bigger size wire rods from the Garret Coiler ranging from 16mm to 32mm.
