SORELSTEEL™ billets are produced using high-quality molten iron delivered from QIT’s ilmenite ore smelting operation. The billets are continuously cast and have consistent and low levels of residual elements that make them especially suitable for conversion to high quality wire rod by QIT’s customers. The rods so produced are of the highest quality and are used in demanding applications such as cold heading, tire cord, piano wire, springs and welding electrodes.

SORELSTEEL™ billets are mainly produced in 160 x 160 square millimeters cross-sections and up to 16 meters in length.
