What is DC03 steel grade?
Mild low-carbon steel for cold forming
Grade DC03 exhibits excellent deep-drawing capability under all types of deformation. This grade is suitable for forming requirements such as deep drawing and difficult profiling.
What is DC grade mean?
The DC grade designation indicates that the granules have undergone a specific drying and granulation process, resulting in a uniform size and shape, which enhances their handling and usability.
What is DC03 material?
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.
Is DC01 a 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 DC01 steel used for?
Specified under the European EN 10130 standard, DC01 steel is widely used in automotive, aerospace, electronics, and construction industries. Its ability to be fabricated into thin, precise strips makes it a go-to material for shims and other applications requiring fine tolerances.
