The Continuous Bar and Rod Rolling Mill, supplied by M/s. Pomini S.P.A of Italy (now VAI), was commissioned in the year 1998. One of the most technologically advanced Bar and Rod Mills in India, it is equipped with sophisticated ABB automation systems and is capable of making wire rods, rounds, hexagonal and square bars to precise specifications.

The Cross-country Bar Mill has been fully renovated and produces round bars and utensil-grade wide-flats and angle bars. Subsequently the hot rolled rods may be annealed in electric or oil-fired furnaces, and pickled in carefully controlled acid baths as per the customer’s requirement to remove the mill scale and produce a clear surface.
