COLD ROLLED STEEL (CR)

Surface Excellence and Precision Tolerance

When aesthetics, precision, and superior formability are priorities in manufacturing, Cold Rolled steel (CR) is the industry's number one choice. This material, which directly affects final product quality with its smooth surface and tight dimensional tolerances, adds value to your projects when combined with the expertise of CHY Steel Service.

Cold rolled steel, as the name suggests, is a flat steel product obtained by re-rolling (passing through rollers) hot rolled and acid-pickled (HRP) steel at room temperature. It is designed to deliver the expected performance even in the most demanding applications, from automotive to white goods.

How is it Produced?
Superior Properties Imparted to Steel

This "cold" process alters the molecular structure of the steel, giving it a range of superior characteristics. Products offered under the assurance of Oz Metal follow these steps:

  • Thickness Reduction: Rolling at room temperature allows for much more precise thinning of the steel's thickness.
  • Surface Quality Enhancement: Cold rolling eliminates imperfections left from hot rolling, creating a bright and homogeneous surface.
  • Annealing: To remove the hardness formed after rolling and restore formability, the sheet is annealed in a controlled atmosphere.
  • Final Finishing (Temper Pass): A light reduction is applied to finalize surface smoothness and optimize mechanical properties.

This multi-step process explains why cold rolled steel is ideal for more precise and aesthetic applications.

How is Cold Rolled Steel
Enhanced at CHY?

We don't just supply. We prepare this high-performance material specifically for your project at our modern facilities:


Cut-to-Length: We prepare sheets in your requested lengths with perfect flatness and burr-free edges.
Precision Slitting: We slit coils into narrow, precise widths required by your production line with minimal burr.
HIGHLIGHTED FEATURES

Core Advantages of Cold Rolled Steel

01
Superior Surface Excellence

Cold Rolled Steel provides a smooth and clean surface ideal for finishes like painting, plating, and varnishing.

02
Precise Thickness Tolerances

Cold rolling ensures minimal thickness deviation, critical for automated production lines and high-precision assemblies.

03
Excellent Formability

Thanks to the annealing process, it is exceptionally suitable for demanding forming operations such as deep drawing and complex bending.

COMPREHENSIVE OPTIONS

CR Technical Specifications

CHY offers a wide range of CR (Cold Rolled) steel products to meet even the most stringent technical requirements.

Delivery Forms and Dimensions
  • Coil: Slit edges or mill (untrimmed) edges.
  • Slit Coil: Precision widths tailored to your project.
  • Sheet: Cut to desired lengths and stacked.
  • Form: Annealed or Full-Hard (unannealed).

  • Thickness Range: 0.10 mm – 3.00 mm
  • Coil ID: Standard 508 mm or 400 mm.
Surface Protection (Oiling) and Standards
Oiling Rates

Due to surface sensitivity, protecting cold rolled products against corrosion is critical. Products stored under standard conditions carry a 6-month corrosion warranty.

  • Normal Oiling (Standard): 1200 mg/m²
  • Light Oiling: 800 mg/m²
  • Heavy Oiling (On Request): 2000 mg/m²

Grades and Standards

A-surface quality according to EN 10130 is standard. B-surface quality can be requested for precision applications.

  • Cold Forming (EN 10130): DC01, DC03, DC04, DC05, DC06 (In increasing order of deep-drawability)
  • High Strength (EN 10268): HC260LA, HC300LA, HC340LA, HC420LA
  • Enameling Grades (EN 10209): EK1, EK4
