Italian term

acciai lunghi di qualità

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Other
"le acciaierie si caratterizzano per la produzione di **acciai lunghi di qualità** (rotaie, profili speciali, etc.).

Does this mean they are characterized by the production of high quality steel or does lunghi refer to acciai (in the sense of "long pices of steel" or something like that?

I'm not sure if I've made myself clear.....

Thanks!

quality long steel products

I think your second supposition is correct that lunghi refers to the steel itself. So they produce long steel products such as bars, tubes etc.
See link as well.

steel long products

Penso si riferisca al fatto che sono segmenti di acciaio di notevole lunghezza, ad esempio le rotaie. Non sono un'espoerta
