Cold Heading Steel Wire

Cold forging steel wire is ideal for forming parts like bolts, nuts, and screws at room temperature.
The wire is drawn through dies and coiled, then treated to withstand harsh forming conditions without heating.
We provide this material widely used for critical automotive parts such as engine and suspension components, offering excellent workability, stable quality, and cost efficiency.

Key Features

  • Wide Range of Steel Grades and Sizes

    We offer a lineup of steel grades corresponding to carbon content, such as SWRCH10K to 35K, with wire diameters available from fine to thick.

  • Contributing to Weight Reduction

    By applying heat treatment technology, we achieve high-strength standards for public regulatory steels. For bolt wires, our patenting technology enhances strength and improves resistance to delayed fracture through microstructure control.

  • Softening Technology

    To accommodate complex shapes and multi-stage plastic deformation in cold forging, we optimize annealing frequency and conditions. This improves crack resistance during cold forging and reduces forging load.

  • Support for Carbon Neutrality

    Using microstructure control through patenting technology, we have developed wires that meet specified strength levels without requiring the quenching and tempering process. This innovation helps reduce CO₂ emissions in customers' production processes, contributing to carbon neutrality.

Applications

  • Automotive Industry

    Bolts, studs, flange screws, shaft components, and more.

  • Industrial and Construstion Machinery Industry

    Gear and bearing-related screws and fasteners

  • Electronics & Electrical Equipment Industry

    Electronic circuit board fasteners, cooling system fasteners, internal structure screws for home appliances.
