Cold rolled steel Product Description
Cold rolled steel also written as CR in short is the base metal for many commercial steels in the market. Cold rolling is a process in which hot rolled coil undergoes deformation by passing through rollers at below its re-crystallization temperature. This will increase the material strength due to crystal structure defects and thickness rolled down precisely to the desired value.
Cold rolled steel characteristics
By manipulating the chemical composition when producing the base for CR and varying the tempering, a range of CR grades can be produced with different mechanical properties. Common attributes include drawability, formability and paintability.
Cold rolled steel application
Few examples of applications include
- Automotive car parts
- Mass storage devices (Voice coil motor)
- Construction (Structural and non- structural)
- Electrical consumer product.
