Products We Handle
Specialty Steel Products
Specialty steel’s properties—such as hardness, strength, tenacity, wear resistance, heat resistance and corrosion resistance—are enhanced by adding various rare metals such as nickel, chromium and molybdenum. It is used in literally “special” applications—automotive and industrial machinery parts, nuclear power plants, and machine tools, for example—that require extreme strength and wear resistance.
Although it may go unnoticed, specialty steel supports our daily lives in many parts of society. Metal One Nexus handles the sales, processing, logistics, inventory and trading of all types of specialty steel, contributing to customer businesses as a leading company in the industry.
Main Products
Bearing steel
Bearing steel is used in a wide range of applications, including high-speed rotating automotive parts. Since bearing steel is used in components that operate repeatedly at high speed, it requires steel possessing excellent durability and wear resistance.
Structural steel
Structural steel is a type of specialty steel used for automotive engine parts, suspension components, undercarriage parts, shafts, gears and similar applications. It comes in various forms, including steel bars, wire rods, flat bars and steel sheets.
Tool steel
Tool steel is an extremely hard specialty steel used primarily for machining applications such as cutting bits, drills and cutters. It needs excellent wear resistance and impact resistance because it is used to cut and machine iron and nonferrous metals.
Heat-resistant steel
Heat-resistant steel is a specialty steel used in high-temperature environments such as automotive and marine engines, nuclear reactors, heating furnaces and turbines. It contains high levels of rare metals such as chromium, nickel and cobalt, and offers excellent oxidation resistance, high-temperature corrosion resistance, and high-temperature strength.
Free-cutting steel
Free-cutting steel is a type of machine structural steel suited for parts that require machining, such as gears, motor shafts and hydraulic fittings. While free-cutting steel once typically contained lead, lead-free free-cutting steel is becoming more common in response to environmental concerns.
High-tensile-strength steel
As its name suggests, this specialty steel possesses high tensile strength. In addition to automotive parts, it is used in a wide range of applications, including construction machinery, bridges, storage tanks and marine structures.
