Following extensive trials at its narrow strip mill in Rotherham, UK, Tata Steel Europe, subsidiary of Indian steel giant Tata Steel, has expanded its hot rolled strip thickness to 13.5 mm.
The steel for the narrow strip is manufactured at Tata Steel's plants in South Yorkshire, UK, before being rolled to its final size at the company's mill in Brinsworth, Rotherham, also in South Yorkshire. The narrow strip is manufactured to very exact specifications demanded by highly specialized sectors across the world such as cold rolled steel, agriculture, automotive, and aviation.
