Profile and sheet are widely used steel sections that can be used in a wide range of fields, including the construction field, due to the features and benefits they provide to consumers. It is possible to use these products from the manufacture of all kinds of doors and windows to the automotive and military industries.
What is a profile?
If you have visited the iron market, you will see that the profiles in 6 and 12 meters dimensions were produced and marketed by different manufacturers. These products are widely used in the construction industry due to their features. Some of its uses include the construction of stairs, railings and pedestrian bridges. The variety of profiles is very large and these products can be classified into different types. Building profiles are among the products that are used in the field of construction. is used The thickness of these products is usually between 2 and 4 mm and they are produced in various types according to certain criteria.
Profiles in terms of appearance
Closed profile
Two methods are usually used to produce closed profiles. In the first method, the sheet is formed through a rolling roller and then the edges of the tube are brought together and welded. In the second method, which is called the extrusion process, a piece that has a very high temperature passes through a hole, takes the shape of the hole and causes the formation of a closed profile.
Open profile< br>
The reason for the naming of these profiles is the presence of expansion in their opening. Profile opening means the distance between the two edges of the opening. Open profiles have many advantages such as light weight, low price and high resistance. Among the most famous open profiles, we can mention belt, beam, Z profile, stud, rebar and corner.
The types of profiles in terms of sex
steel profile
Among the most common steel profiles, we can mention corner and belt. Due to the presence of a high percentage of chrome in the structure of these profiles, these products have anti-rust capabilities. He pointed out the low production cost, low weight and high resistance to corrosion and vibrations. These types of profiles do not provide you with the ability to drill holes, and their production is done at a high speed.
Galvanized profile
Because of the presence of a metal coating On the surface of these profiles, these products are highly resistant to rust and corrosion. It is possible to visually inspect galvanized profiles without the need for destructive testing.
In what areas is the steel profile used?
Profiles are not only limited to the field of construction, but there is also the possibility of industrial use of them. Looking at the automotive industry and the military industry, we can see that a significant part of the structures used in these industries are profiles. However, it can still be said that the construction industry is the most used profile. In the construction industry, building profiles are widely used in the production of doors and windows. It is also possible to make all kinds of protective fences using profiles. In addition to these things, profiles are used to build protective fences in order to separate a part of the land from the whole main land.
Among other places where profiles can be used, is the roof and the roof of the house. . The reason for using profiles in the roof of houses is that these products have a very high resistance against corrosion and moisture and are also light in weight. This capability becomes important when there is an intention to build a house in humid areas of the country. It is interesting to know that profile is also used in the medical industry due to its light weight and high safety. In addition, the use of the profile is clearly visible in the construction of devices used to transport the injured and patients. Due to the high safety and light weight of the profiles, they are also used in the construction of pedestrian bridges.
What is the sheet?
One of the other products that are widely used in different fields, besides profiles, are sheets. At present, various factories in our country are engaged in the production of various types of steel sheets. Aksin Steel Factory, Kavian Steel Factory and Mobarakeh Steel Factory of Isfahan are among the factories. Because of the members of the quality products, they were able to turn Iran into one of the largest producers of steel products in the Middle East. Steel coils are usually produced by the battle method. The variety of products is large and each of them can be used in different applications.
Investigating the use of different types of sheets in different areas
Black sheet and its use
One of the most widely used types of steel sheets is called black sheet, which is named because the surface of these sheets is not shiny and polished. Hot rolling method is used to produce black metal sheet and this product is currently produced and marketed by factories such as Kavian Steel, Aksin Ahvaz, Saba Steel and Mobarakeh Steel Factory.
Since for production Black sheets are made of high-quality materials and can be used in various industries. Some of the applications of black sheet should be known as tanker construction, shipbuilding, seamed pipe, various types of profiles, car body, car floor sheet, etc.
Oil sheet and its application
Oil sheets have a shiny and polished surface, that's why they are known by this name in the market. The cold rolling method is used to produce these sheets, and the purpose of their production is to prepare sheets with high surface quality and low thickness. There is a possibility of using oiled sheets in a wide range of industries. Some of the applications of this type of sheet include making office furniture, producing pipes, making non-flexible panels, base sheets for the production of galvanized sheets, making household appliances, making car parts, etc.
Acid wash sheet and its use
Acid wash sheets are one of the types of widely used sheets. After the sheet is produced by hot rolling, it is necessary to continuously spray water on its surface in order to cool it. This is the reason for the formation of iron oxide sheet surface. In order to remove these scales from the surface of the sheet, it is necessary to carry out the acid washing process on it.
