MILD STEEL
MILD STEEL
Mild Steel is the cheapest and most commonly used steel in the construction industries. We carry both Hot Rolled and Cold Rolled Mild Steel.
Hot rolled carbon steel is created when the steel is rolled at high temperatures (>900°C). The steel is then cooled at room temperature, which stabilizes the material and prevents internal or microscopic stresses from forming. Hot rolled carbon steel is easily welded, and works well in structural applications where strength is needed and an aesthetic finish is less of a concern.
Cold rolled carbon steel is hot rolled then cooled at room temperature. It’s then re-rolled at room temperature for a smoother, more precise finish. Because it’s work hardened, it is stronger than hot rolled steel. This makes it better suited for bending and fabrication than other mild steels but this is also reflected in the pricing.

- Takes to galvanising & painting well
STAINLESS STEEL
STAINLESS STEEL
Stainless steel is a versatile, corrosion resistant metal. The unique blend of alloy elements gives laser cut stainless steel parts a sleek finish that can be easily improved upon by further finishing processes.
Stainless steel is best suited to highly corrosive or high stress environments. It is widely used in the marine, aerospace, medical and construction industries as well as kitchen appliances and cookware.
