DC01 / 1.0330 - SteelNumber - Chemical composition,Mechanical properties and Equivalent grades

DC01 / 1.0330 is a common European cold-rolled, low-carbon steel (EN 10130) known for excellent formability, smoothness, and surface quality, ideal for bending and stamping, with low C (≤0.12%) and Mn (≤0.60%) content, giving it good ductility but moderate strength (Yield ~140-280 MPa, Tensile ~270-410 MPa), with equivalents like St12, FeP01, and various EN 10139 grades

 

Grade Nomenclature Explanation (per EN standard):

D: Denotes flat products for cold Drawing (cold forming)

C: Denotes Cold rolled processing

01: Indicates general drawing quality (entry-level grade for cold forming)

Warning! Only for reference

Surface Quality Classification: DC01 is divided into DC01-A and DC01-B. DC01-A allows minor defects (e.g., slight scratches, dents) that do not affect formability; DC01-B requires a defect-free surface for high-quality coating applications.

Galvanized Variant: DC01+ZE (1.0330+ZE) is the electrolytically zinc-coated version, complying with EN 10152, with enhanced corrosion resistance.

Application Scope: Suitable for general cold forming processes (stamping, bending, cutting) in home appliances, hardware, construction (ventilation ducts), and automotive interior parts.

Substitution Caution: When using equivalent grades, confirm chemical composition and mechanical properties match the specific application requirements, as there may be subtle differences between standards.

What is the difference between DC01 and DC04 steel?

DC04 and DC01 are both cold-rolled, unalloyed quality steels that are used for various industrial applications. While DC01 serves as the standard grade for general cold forming processes, DC04 is characterized by improved deep-drawing properties and higher ductility.

Is DC01 the same as CR4?

Cold Reduced steel

Here at GNEE Steel, we stock and process DC01 mild steel (often referred to as CR4), in varying thicknesses from 0.9mm up to 3mm. Each sheet is de-coiled and flattened to strict tolerances in our works, ensuring consistent quality and flatness, every time.

What does DC01 mean?

DC01 represents the basic grade of the DC steel family and is also known under the former designations St12 or FeP01. This grade can be used for simple forming operations such as bending, coining, beading and drawing.

What is the difference between DC01 and DC03?

DC01 – This grade can be used for simple forming work, e.g. bending, embossing, beading and drawing. DC03 – This grade is suitable for forming requirements such as deep drawing and difficult profiling.

What is DC01 steel equivalent to?

Material 1.0330, DC01 steel equivalent to ASTM, ISO, European (German DIN, British BSI, France NF), Japanese JIS and Chinese GB standard (for reference). Note: DIN 1623 has been replaced by DIN EN 10130, and the designation ST12 has been replaced by DC01.

What is the thickness of DC01 material?

Galvanized Steel Sheet - Grade Dc01, Thickness 0.2-3.50mm, Width 914-1250mm | Cold Rolled, Durable Zinc Coating, Long Lasting Toughness.

Is cold-rolled steel better than hot rolled steel?

Cold rolling produces steel with closer dimensional tolerances and a wider range of surface finishes than hot rolling. It is also up to 20% stronger than hot rolled through the use of strength hardening.
