Comprehensive Guide to Iran Steel Wire Rod Specifications and Standards
1. Global Standards for Iran Steel Wire Rod
Iranian steel wire rod adheres to internationally recognized standards, ensuring high performance and consistency:
- ASTM A510 (American standard for wire rods)
- ISO 16120 (International standard for non-alloy wire rod)
- GOST 30136 (Russian standard for steel wire rods)
- ISIRI 3835 (Iranian national standard for steel wire rods)
Compliance with these standards ensures that Iranian wire rods meet high-performance industrial specifications, offering superior ductility, drawability, and fatigue resistance. Manufacturers rely on these standards to ensure consistency in quality, machinability, and structural integrity.
2. Optimized Chemical Composition of Iran Steel Wire Rod
The chemical composition of Iran steel wire rod is carefully controlled to provide excellent mechanical properties and processing efficiency:
- Carbon (C): 0.05% – 0.85%
- Manganese (Mn): 0.30% – 1.50%
- Silicon (Si): 0.15% – 0.35%
- Sulfur (S): ≤ 0.04%
- Phosphorus (P): ≤ 0.035%
- Chromium (Cr): ≤ 0.20% (in high-strength wire rods)
- Nickel (Ni): ≤ 0.25% (for corrosion resistance)
This composition enhances strength, malleability, and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for cold drawing applications, wire processing, and reinforcement materials. The presence of trace elements such as chromium and nickel further improves heat resistance and wear resistance in demanding environments.
3. Mechanical Properties for Industrial Applications
Iran steel wire rod is engineered to provide excellent mechanical properties, ensuring optimal performance:
- Yield Strength: 250 – 600 MPa
- Tensile Strength: 400 – 900 MPa
- Elongation: ≥ 10%
- Surface Finish: Smooth, free from defects
- Good cold forming and drawing capabilities
- Enhanced fatigue resistance for dynamic loads
These properties make Iranian wire rods a strong competitor in the global market compared to Chinese and Indian wire rods, as they offer enhanced mechanical properties, superior surface quality, and more cost-effective production. While European wire rods focus on ultra-high strength applications, Iranian wire rods provide an optimal balance of durability, weldability, and affordability, making them ideal for diverse industrial uses.
