Products, Characteristics & Applications

Cold Rolled Mild Steel

Mild Steel has a low carbon content and is relatively soft, having a tensile strength of no greater than 340 MPa. Its good elongation and great formability make the steel popular for many applications ranging from regular to sophisticated machining.Its most common application is automotive parts.

Cold Rolled High Strength Steel (HSLA)

Featuring deep drawing and high strength, high strength steel can be classified into bake-hardening steel, solid-solution strengthening and precipitation hardening steel. It also has many variants: BH (bake-hardenable) steel, HSLA (high strength low alloy), R (rephosphorized) steel, IF (interstitial free) HSS, ATOS (Automobile structural) steel and HB (Hyper Burring) steel.

Cold Rolled Advanced High Strength Steel (AHSS)

Advanced High Strength Steel is metallurgically classified as transformation toughened steel using low-temperature transformation structure. Its variants include DP (Dual Phase) steel, TRIP (Transformation Induced Plasticity) steel, XF (extra Formable) steel, TWIP (Twinning Induced Plasticity) steel, CP (Complex Phase) steel, Mart (Martensitic) Steel and FB (Ferrite and Bainite) steel. Among the variants, those with a tensile strength of over 1 GPa are referred to as Giga Steel.
