Non-Pickled Non-Temper Rolled

Hot rolled sheet non-pickled non-temper rolled product is supplied as a coil directly off the Hot Strip Mill with no additional processing. This product is normally intended for sheet applications where critical surface, edges or flatness are not normally required. However, large volumes of material 0.186" gauge and heavier is furnished to customers equipped with cut-to-length lines who convert this product into plate.

Hot rolled sheet non-pickled non-temper rolled was formerly known as a hot rolled band. Today, this product is normally referred to as hot-rolled unprocessed because it is supplied as a coil directly off the hot strip mill without further processing. This product is typically manufactured to a specific nominal thickness, but it may also be ordered to a minimum thickness. In either case, this sheet product is sold on an actual weight basis. Characteristics of an unprocessed hot rolled coil include a mill edge (see drawing), tightly adhering scale on the sheet surface from the slab reheating operation, and coil head and tail ends that exhibit thickness and flatness variations compared to the coil body. Also, hot rolled non-temper rolled sheet has an edge that is "as-rolled" off the hot strip mill that is commonly designated as "mill edge". This edge is generally rounded and does not conform to any particular contour. This product is intended for applications where critical surface, edges or flatness are not required.
