Semi-finished metal products: The basis for functional components
SBV Stahltechnik trades and distributes high-quality semi-finished metal products in the form of bars, wires, tubes, and many other shapes. We advise you on the right selection of the suitable material for your application area.
From order quantities of 20 tons, we deliver according to your specific requirements. With us, you get top quality, punctuality, and a worry-free service.
What are semi-finished metal products?
Semi-finished products are prefabricated basic shapes made of metal that are further processed. They are created through casting, rolling, extrusion, or drawing. A finished part is produced from a semi-finished product by milling, turning, or welding. The advantage: Semi-finished products shorten paths because they already have a shape that closely resembles the eventual component.
Examples of semi-finished products include:
- Bars and rods as a starting point for turned parts or connecting elements
- Profiles with specific cross-sections for support structures or guides
- Tubes for pipelines, frames, or structures
Which materials do we offer for semi-finished metal products?
The choice of material determines which properties a semi-finished product will have later. SBV mainly works with stainless steel and aluminum, complemented by special grades for specific applications.
- Stainless steel such as 1.4301, 1.4404, or 1.4462 stands out with corrosion resistance, high strength, and hygienic surfaces. From it, sheets, tubes, or rods are produced, which are used in plant engineering, medical technology, or the food industry.
- Aluminum alloys combine low weight with high stability. Ideal for extruded profiles or cast semi-finished products used in the automotive or machinery industry.
- Special alloys provide additional properties such as temperature resistance or media resistance when standard materials reach their limits.
Application areas of our semi-finished metal products
Semi-finished products are indispensable in almost all industries because they form the basis for durable and functional components.
Automotive industry
Aluminum profiles become light and stable structural components.
Mechanical engineering
Bars, tubes, and profiles serve as axles, supports, or frames and withstand high forces.
Medical technology
Stainless steel semi-finished products are the basis for instruments, implant parts, and device housings with high hygiene requirements.
Food industry
Premium profiles with smooth surfaces guarantee hygienic systems and durable production equipment.
Energy and marine technology
Corrosion-resistant tubes and profiles ensure components that must withstand saltwater or high temperatures.

Advantages of our semi-finished metal products
Dimensional accuracy from the start
Semi-finished products are already available in a defined shape. This ensures tight tolerances and reduces processing effort. Instead of milling a part entirely from a block, you use a semi-finished product with a suitable cross-section, saving material and time.
Variety of shapes and materials
Whether stainless steel, aluminum, or special alloys, semi-finished products are available in almost every variant. This allows designers to make a precise selection based on strength, corrosion resistance, or thermal conductivity.
Technical safety
Semi-finished products undergo controlled processes. Casting, rolling, or drawing create material structures that are crucial for the later application. Stress-relieved cast stainless steel parts last longer, extruded profiles have uniform properties and high surface qualities.
