Is DC01 the same as CR4? Cold Reduced steel
Here at John Tainton, we stock and process DC01 mild steel (often referred to as CR4), in varying thicknesses from 0.9mm up to 3mm.
What is the difference between DC01 and DC03 steel?
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 AM? It is a non-alloy cold-rolled steel with very low carbon content. It is often used in the automotive industry and for making electronic components. The low carbon content of this steel makes it very easy to work with.
What is DC01 steel?
DC01 carbon steel is a deep-drawing steel with high deformability. Non-hardening, its very low carbon content makes it very easy to work and ductile, easy to deform. It is ideal for making knife handles from folded sheet metal.
What is DC03 steel grade? DC03 is a low-carbon steel characterized by excellent cold formability. The chemical composition of DC03 is precisely defined to ensure that the material has the required mechanical properties. Typically, DC03 contains a maximum of 0.10% carbon, a maximum of 0.45% manganese and traces of phosphorus and sulphur.
