The masana'antu tsari na sumul karfe shambura aka yafi zuwa kashi biyu manyan matakai:

1. Hot rolling (extruded sumul karfe tube): zagaye tube billet → dumama → huda → uku-roll giciye mirgina, ci gaba da mirgina ko extrusion → tsiri → girma (ko rage) → sanyaya → mikewa → na'ura mai aiki da karfin ruwa gwajin (ko gane flaw) → marking → warehousing

2. Cold zana (birgima) bututun ƙarfe maras kyau: zagaye tube blank → dumama → huda → kai → annealing → pickling → man fetur (copper plating) → Multi-pass sanyi zane (sanyi mirgina) → blank tube → zafi magani → daidaitawa → hydrostatic gwaji (gano kuskure) → alama → ajiya.
