An ingot is a mass of molten metal or alloy that is cast into a mold, cooled, and solidified. It serves as the primary material for various metal fabrication processes like rolling, extrusion, and machining.
There are two main categories of ingots based on their deoxidization levels: rimmed steel (insufficiently deoxidized) and killed steel (fully deoxidized). Killed steel is generally higher in quality due to reduced impurities compared to rimmed steel.
Ingots are foundational materials for a wide range of metal products. Killed steel ingots, being of higher quality, are used in applications requiring durability and precision, such as in special steel and structural steel products.
Rimmed steel ingots, while lower in quality than killed steel, are cost-effective and used for general structural steel applications. They are also preferred for thin plates due to their fine cast surface.
Ingots vary in size, shape, and use and are categorized into ingots, blooms, slabs, and billets.
