COLD-FINISHED BAR
Your trusted partner in precision machining.
Born from Walsin Lihwa's premium cold-finished bar
Steeval™, Walsin Lihwa’s cold-finished bar brand, builds on decades of technical expertise—delivering reliable, high-quality materials and expert support to customers worldwide.
Walsin Lihwa began in 1966 as a wire and cable manufacturer and entered the stainless steel industry in the 1990s by establishing a fully integrated mill capable of producing a wide range of products. Since 2022, we have accelerated our global growth through strategic acquisitions across Europe, strengthening our network and elevating our metallurgical and precision processing capabilities.
As industries continue to evolve, we are reshaping how stainless steel creates value. By centering innovation on cold-finished bars—the foundation of precision manufacturing—we are opening a new chapter in stainless steel precision materials.

Feature
Steeval™ Funtional Features
Delivering customized solutions for machining and end-use applications, Steeval™ is supported by strong R&D collaboration to enhance performance and competitiveness.
Wear Resistance
Steeval offers wear-resistant cold-finished bars with high strength and hardness, supported by integrated testing for corrosion and wear performance. These materials are widely applied in industries with demanding long-term friction durability, including automotive, tooling, petrochemical, and mechanical transmission.
Heat Resistance
Heat-resistant stainless steel offers excellent creep and oxidation resistance, ensuring reliable performance under high temperatures. It is widely used in petrochemical equipment, boilers, heat exchangers, furnace tubes, automotive exhaust systems, and power generation facilities.
Soft Magnetism
Soft magnetic stainless steel can be rapidly magnetized and demagnetized under low magnetic fields, offering stable magnetic performance and good machinability. It is widely used in motors, solenoid valves, sensors, relays, and electronic components, serving the electrical and automation industries.
Cleanliness
Steeval offers cold-finished bars in various purity levels to serve diverse industries, including automotive, automation, semiconductor, and aerospace. Each grade is engineered to deliver the material quality and purity precisely aligned with the requirements of the end applications.
