Description
UKREXPORT Pvt Co. has direct access to producers of Round Steel
Billets in Ukraine and neighboring countries (ex Soviet republics).
Steel Billet is not a finished steel product, nor a raw steel in
pure form - but it’s a freshly made steel in form of a metal bar,
round bar (or else square or rectangular). Steel Billets are
considered fresh and raw, they must undergo a series of
manufacturing processes to be transformed into more functional
shapes and sizes to be used for various ultimate purposes. It is
intermediate or semi-finished Steel and as such it is only being
purchased and used by steel factories for further treatment in
course of manufacturing finished products from it, such as seamless
pipes, boiler pipes, axles, rolls, pinions, bolts, etc. Thus
official sale and export policy for Steel Billets admits only steel
factories as customers and prohibits selling to non-specialized
intermediaries or for trading/stocking purposes.
Round Steel Billets are distinguished of 2 types, by making
technology:
- Continuously-Cast Round Billets, in fixed diameters **0mm, **0mm,
******0mm, **0mm, **0mm, **0mm; length within ***2m
- Hot-Rolled Round Billets, in more variable diameters from *5mm
and up to **5mm; length also varies within ***2m
These Billets are seldom delivered in *0ft/*0ft containers, but
foremost as bulk cargos in bundles per 5MT suitable mostly for bulk
carriers (cargo vessels). That’s why minimal order quantity is
***0MT.
Once again, the above Round Steel Billets are not finished Round
Hot-Rolled Steel Bars as per GOST ******8, for example, ranging
from 5mm to **0mm in diameter and from 2m to *4m in length that
customers can specify. The latter is finished product and can be
ordered starting from ***0MT. But the former is literally raw
material and, as such, sold in commercial bulk quantities starting
from ***0MT.
