Objective This project aims to develop a new generation of high carbon (0.8 - 0.85%) steels for high strength wire-rods of large diameter (13 mm) suitable for producing cold drawn wires of 4 - 11 mm diameter, tensile strength 1560 - 2100 MPa and good ductility. In close association with this objective, work will be carried out on adapting this range of products to mechanical descaling. This aim will be achieved by optimising the thermomechanical treatment parameters and the steel composition. Extensive industrial and laboratory trials will be carried out.
