a semi finished product, hot rolled or forged with a maximum cross-sectional area of 232 sq.mm.; it is normally used as the raw material for the production of deformed reinforcing bars

A solid semi finished round or square product that has been hot worked by forging, rolling or extrusion. For seamless tubular products, the billet is heated and pierced to form a tube hollow.

A lump of steel before it is processed

Rectangular or square bar of raw material.

an item created from a solid block. Usually machined pieces, not necessarily aluminum. Here is a picture of a billet upper control arm from the Herbst truggy. Also see CNC.

The preliminary material for the production of seamless stainless steel tubes is delivered in bars with a certain diameter. Of these preliminary material bars, billets with a certain length are sawn off, according to dimension and length of the desired finished tubes, which are pressed to seamless stainless steel tubes on the extruding press.

A semifinished, cogged, hot-rolled, or continuous-cast metal product of uniform section, usually rectangular with radiused corners. Billets are relatively larger than bars. See Bloom.

A solid semifinished round or square that has been hot worked usually smaller than a bloom. Also a general term for wrought starting stock for forgings or extrusions.

A term used interchangeably with bloom. A billet is a semi finished metal product usually of rectangular shape and uniform section. Billets can be cogged, hot-rolled, or continuous-cast.

Commonly a cylindrical form of the aluminum alloy used in the extrusion press. Formed at casting houses, and shipped either in long logs or cut into specific lengths for extrusion press applications.

a casting of aluminum which is pushed through die (like Play-Dough) to make an extrusion of aluminum

a semi-finished length of material such as aluminum, steel, titanium, etc

a semi-finished steel product that has been rolled or forged from an ingot or strand cast

a small rectangular charge that is about twice as high as it is wide

a solid lump of metal

A semi-finished rolled ingot of rectangular cross section or nearly so. In general the term "billet" is used when the cross section ranges from 4 up to 36 sq. in., the width always being less than twice the thickness. Small sizes are usually classed as bars or "small billets." The term "bloom" is properly used when the cross section is greater than about 36 sq. in., though this distinction is not universally observed.

A solid semi-finished round or square product that has been cast or hot worked by rolling.

A bar of semi-finished steel or iron about 1-1/2 to 4 in. square.

Also often called a bloom. A semifinished product of square, rectangular, or even round cross section, hot rolled, or forged. Producing billets or blooms from ingots by forging is called cogging, while by rolling it is called blooming.

A slug cut from rod to be heated and forged.

A cast, cylindrical piece of aluminum that is used to make extrusions.

A semi-finished steel product with a square cross section up to 155mm x 155mm. This product is either rolled or continuously cast and is then transformed by rolling to obtain finished products like wire rod, merchant bars and other sections. The range of semi-finished products above 155 mm x 155 mm are called blooms.

Small steel ingot produced for passing through a sections rolling mill.

A semi-finished form of stainless steel that is used for long products such as bars and forgings. Billets are normally two to seven inches square.

Describes a mill product that is generally round or round-corner squared (RCS) and runs from 4" in diameter or larger. A billet product has been hot worked by either forging, extruding or rolling process. These products are primarily used as starting stock for subsequent forging or extrusion processes.

A solid chunk of metal, usually in the form of a slab or a piece of cylindrical stock. Commonly cut into usable parts by CNC machinery.

round, solid bar of steel which is pierced to form a seamless tube or pipe

the cylindrical form of aluminum just prior to the extruding process.

A solid cylindrical casting used for hot extrusion into rod, bar, tube, or shape or for hot piercing into tube.

A solid bar of metal.

A cylindrical aluminium ingot used to make extrusions.

In aluminum extrusion, a solid- or hollow-heated aluminum material forced under pressure through a die in an extrusion press to form an aluminum extrusion. Average billet lengths range from 26 to 72 inches.

A semi-finished long product, sometimes of rectangular but more usually of square cross-section, with radiused corners. It can be produced from the hot-rolling of a bloom, which has in turn been hot-rolled from ingot stock, or it can be produced directly by continuous casting. Square billet has sides between 50-120mm, whereas rectangular billet has a cross-sectional area between 2500 and 14400mm2 and has a width to thickness ratio greater than 1:1 and less than 2:1. In practice, sizes up to 160mm square are often referred to as billet.

A semi-finished steel form that is used for "long" products: bars, channels or other structural shapes. A billet is different from a slab because of its outer dimensions; billets are normally two to seven inches square, while slabs are 30-80 inches wide and 2-10 inches thick. Both shapes are generally continually cast, but they may differ greatly in their chemistry.

continuously cast semi-finished steel long product which is square or round in section and subsequently rolled into rod or bar used for reinforcing concrete. Though it has no precise dimensions it usually has a section diameter between 150mm and 180mm

Billet is a term used in manufacturing to refer to a cast product. A cast product is defined as either as ingot or a billet, depending on whether the cross-sectional diameter is greater than, or less than approximately 200 mm, respectively. A billet is typically cast to a geometry compatible with secondary processing, e.g. forging.

a place that is designated for soldiers to receive food and shelter.

lodging for military personnel (especially in a private home)

provide housing for (military personnel)

A billet is the place to which a person, generally a soldier, is assigned to sleep. Soldiers are generally billetted in barracks when on duty, although in some armies soldiers with families are permitted to maintain a home off-post. Used for a building, the term is more commonly used in British English; United States standard terms are quarters, barracks, "Single (Soldier) Housing" or "Family Housing".
