Cold Rolled Sheet Metal

Stock bars and sheets of cold rolled steel crs are commonly used in all areas of manufacturing.

Cold rolled sheet metal.

Cold rolled steel yield strength is higher compared to hot rolled steel sheets. Cold rolled steel is essentially hot rolled steel that has had further processing. Cold rolling is most often used to decrease the thickness of plate and sheet metal in the manufacturing stage. Hillman 12 in x 24 in cold rolled steel expanded sheet metal.

Sheet quality finish cold rolled steel will have closed thickness profile good surface texture and flatness compared with hot rolled steel. Buy online or contact us for a quote. Cold roll steel sheet plate 9 products we carry cold roll steel plate in 1018 1045 and a366 1008. Most of our cold roll sheet plate stock is available in full size and custom cut lengths.

As the metal sheet gets thinner between the rolls its speed increases. Cold roll our large cold roll steel stock is available in various shapes and alloys with full sizes available. Cold rolled steel sheet is essentially hot rolled steel that has been further processed to increase its strength and strength to weight ratio. This process will produce steel with closer dimensional tolerances and a wider range of surface finishes.

The steel is processed further in cold reduction mills where the material is cooled at room temperature followed by annealing and or tempers rolling. That would mean material wear and deformation if an oil film wasn t there to minimise the contact. Therefore cold rolled steel is identifiable by an oily and smooth surface. The terms are opposed to hot formed steel and hot rolled steel.

Crs steel sheets are easy to weld form drill. This cold forming occurs either by re rolling at around room temperature and then coiling into sheet or else drawing into bars or tubes. For pricing and availability. Therefore cold rolled steel is less likely to fail under pressure.

C1008 1010 crs steel sheet astm a366 cold rolled steel sheets are rolled to a close thickness tolerance and possess a fine smooth surface providing a excellent base for painting. Cold formed steel cfs is the common term for steel products shaped by cold working processes carried out near room temperature such as rolling pressing stamping bending etc. Hillman 24 in x 24. The material is cooled by the use of oil which also acts as a lubricant during the rolling process.
