Bright steel bars used in construction and structural applications

Construction & Structural Applications – Steel Bright Bars

This application falls under the General Engineering & Fabrication segment, where bright steel bars are
used for construction-related components that require dimensional accuracy, strength and ease of fabrication.
While hot rolled steel is common in large structural work, bright steel bars are selected wherever precision,
repeatability and clean finishes are required.
