Is there any difference between wire rod and round steel in steel?

Is there any difference between wire rod and round steel in steel?

Answer:

Main application: Pu wire is mainly used for building reinforced concrete structure for reinforcing bars, and it can also be made of cold drawn steel wire for strapping and so on.
Round steel is a solid strip of steel whose cross section is round. Its specifications are expressed in diameter, in units of millimeters (mm), such as "50mm", which means a diameter of 50 millimeters of round steel. Round bar is divided into three parts: hot rolling, forging and cold drawing. Standard Specification for hot rolled round steel is 5.5-250 mm. Where: 5.5-25 mm small round steel mostly straight bundles of supply, used for steel, bolts and various mechanical parts; greater than 25 mm round steel, seamless steel pipe is mainly used for the manufacture of mechanical parts of the tube, etc..
Steel wire and round steel are two different materials.Wire rod refers to the hot-rolled steel bar of 5-22mm diameter or the special-shaped steel of this section. As a result of wire rod delivery, it is also known as wire rod.
