    This document provides examples of different levels of rust that may be present on wire rod coils, ranging from zero rust to heavy rust over 75%. It explains that the amount and type of rust will affect the effectiveness of mechanical descaling. Light rust up to 30% can still be converted into high quality wire through descaling, while medium rust may cause some staining and rust over 50% would not be suitable for quality wire products. The document advises against intentional rusting of coils prior to use.

    Wire Rod Rust Guide

    The following are examples showing the various degree of rust which may be present on wire rod
    coils. The effectiveness of A WILCO Mechanical Descaling System will be directly affected by the
    amount and type of coil rust present. Rod coil rust will vary from simple surface staining limited to the
    scale itself to base metal pitting. A misconception concerning rod rust and mechanical descaling is
    that wire rod needs to be “seasoned” prior to use. Intentional rusting of rod coils is definitely not
    recommended.
