Flat-rolled products of alloy steel (except of silicon-electrical or high-speed steel), not further worked than cold-rolled, of a width of less than 600 mm

cpc code 41224 covers the production of flat-rolled alloy steel products, excluding silicon-electrical or high-speed steel, that have been cold-rolled to a width of less than 600 mm. This industry plays a crucial role in the manufacturing sector, providing essential materials for a wide range of industries, including automotive, construction, and machinery. The demand for these specialized steel products is driven by the need for lightweight, durable, and corrosion-resistant materials in various applications.

The production of flat-rolled alloy steel products under cpc code 41224 typically involves a series of steps. First, the raw materials, which include alloy steel ingots or billets, are heated in a furnace to the appropriate temperature. The heated material is then passed through a series of rolling mills, where it is gradually reduced in thickness and elongated to the desired dimensions. The cold-rolling process helps to improve the steel's strength, hardness, and surface finish. Finally, the flat-rolled products may undergo additional processing, such as annealing or pickling, to enhance their properties and meet specific customer requirements.

The main inputs required for the production of flat-rolled alloy steel products under cpc code 41224 include alloy steel raw materials, such as 41210 Ingots, other primary forms, of alloy steel, as well as specialized rolling mills, furnaces, and other production equipment. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce, energy sources, and various consumables, such as lubricants and coolants, to ensure efficient and high-quality production.

The primary output of the industry covered by cpc code 41224 is flat-rolled alloy steel products, which can be used in a variety of applications. These products may be further processed or consumed by industries such as 41230 Bars and rods, of alloy steel, not further worked than forged, hot-rolled, hot-drawn or extruded, but including those twisted after rolling, 41240 Angles, shapes and sections, of alloy steel, not further worked than hot-rolled, hot-drawn or extruded, and 41250 Flat-rolled products of alloy steel, of a width of 600 mm or more, not further worked than hot-rolled, among others.
