What is Hot Rolled Pickled & Oiled Steel?
Hot Rolled Pickled and Oiled steel (HRPO) has been processed and descaled to remove surface impurities.
Hot Rolled Pickled and Oiled steel sheets, and coils have improved workability and ductility, creating cost-saving opportunities for downstream processing like bending, forming, welding, laser cutting, and painting.
Alliance Steel's extensive inventory of Hot Rolled Pickled and Oiled steel sheets and coils has been descaled and oiled to extend longevity in corrosive environments. Request a quote today!
What is Pickling and Oiling?
Hot Rolled steel products will scale in contact with oxygen and water vapor after the rolling process.
Pickling is a metal surface cleaning process in which an acid bath (either sulfuric or hydrochloric) removes rust, stains, and unwanted contaminants that could interfere with subsequent fabrication processes like bending, forming, painting, and stamping.
After the pickling process, steel can oxidize after extended exposure to oxygen and atmospheric moisture. Finally, the oil film is applied to the steel to create a protective shield.

ASTM A1011 Hot Rolled Pickled Steel
ASTM 1011 is the standard specification for Sheet, Hot Rolled, Carbon, Structural, High-Strength Low-Alloy, High-Strength Low-Alloy with improved formability, and ultra-high-strength steel. It is ideal when some surface imperfections are not an issue and is ideal for forming and welding. Heat treatment can affect the properties of the steel.
Alliance Steel stocks ASTM A1011 Hot Rolled Pickled Steel in:
- Commercial Steel (CS) & Drawing Steel (DS) Types A and B
- Structural Steel (SS): Grades 30-55
- HSLA (High Strength Low Alloys)
- UHSS (Ultra-High-Strength Steel): Grades 40 - 100
ASTM A1018 Hot Rolled Pickled Steel
The A1018 specification is the standard specification for heavy gauge Hot Rolled Sheet Carbon (CS), Structural (SS), High-Strength Low-Alloy (HSLAS), and High-Strength Low-Alloy with improved formability.
(HSLAS-F) and Ultra-High Strength (UHSS) steels in thicknesses over 0.230". ASTM A1018 is ideal when some surface imperfections are not an issue. ASTM 1018 is ideal for forming and welding. Heat treatment can affect the properties of the steel.
Alliance Steel stocks ASTM A1018 Hot Rolled Pickled Steel in:
- Commercial Steel (CS) & Drawing Steel (DS) Types A and B
- Structural Steel (SS): Grades 30-45
- HSLA (High Strength Low Alloys)
- UHSS (Ultra-High-Strength Steel): Grades 40-100
ASTM A36 Hot Rolled Pickled Steel
ASTM A36 Steel Plate is one of the most common grades of steel used in structural applications. The ASTM A36 standard covers low-carbon steels commonly used in construction, manufacturing, and other industries. It is considerably soft for easy forming, machining, and welding. Heat treatment has less effect on ASTM A36 steel material.
