A billet includes a solid steel body and an alloy cladding. The cladding may include a square tube in which the body is inserted with an interface at which the cladding becomes bonded to the body when the billet is heated and rolled or otherwise worked into a ferrous product. At least one element composed of a mass of finely divided scavenging aluminum, titanium or magnesium, is placed in the tube adjacent the body and separate from the interface. The elements are advantageously compressed into briquettes which scavenge oxygen from residual air at the interface to prevent oxidation of the cladding at the interface. The tube may be closed to prevent gases outside the billet from penetrating to the interface. Alternatively, reliance may be placed on the briquettes to scavenge oxygen from the residual air and also from atmospheric air and furnace gases before they can penetrate to the interface.

The billet according to claim 1, wherein the cladding member is comprised of at least two parts which are joined together to form a sealed housing in which the solid steel body and the scavenging metal are enclosed. 13. The billet according to claim 1, wherein, upon heating, the scavenging metal scavenges nitrogen initially present in the billet before the billet is worked. 14. A method of working a billet comprising: a solid steel body;a cladding member at least a portion of which is comprised of an alloy selected from the group consisting of stainless steel, nickel-chrome, nickel-copper and copper-nickel alloys;an interface between at least a portion of the solid steel body and said portion of the cladding member; andscavenging metal in the billet a position that is separate from the interface,the method comprising:sealing the billet;causing the scavenging metal to be heated so that the scavenging metal scavenges oxygen initially present in the billet, and working the billet to form a ferrous product in which said portion of the solid steel body and said portion of the cladding member are bonded together at the interface. 15. A ferrous product produced by a method as claimed in claim 14. 16. The method according to claim 14, wherein the scavenging metal is selected from the group consisting of aluminum, titanium, magnesium and an alloy of magnesium and aluminum. 17. The method according to claim 14, wherein the scavenging metal is heated to cause said oxygen to be scavenged while the cladding member remains at ambient temperature. 18. The method according to claim 14, wherein the billet is placed in a furnace and the scavenging metal is heated to cause said oxygen to be scavenged before the alloy reaches a temperature at which said oxidation occurs. 19. The method according to claim 14, wherein the cladding member forms at least a part of a sealed housing in which the solid steel body and the scavenging metal are enclosed. 20. The method according to claim 14, wherein the scavenging metal is located adjacent at least one end of the solid steel body. 21. The method according to claim 14, wherein the cladding member is comprised of at least two parts which are joined together to form a sealed housing in which the solid steel body and the scavenging metal are enclosed. 22. The method according to claim 14, wherein, upon being heated, the scavenging metal scavenges nitrogen initially present in the billet before the billet is worked. 23. The method according to claim 14, wherein the scavenging metal comprises a first portion comprised of aluminum, magnesium or an alloy thereof and a second portion comprised of titanium.
