What is DC04 steel?
DC04 is a high-quality cold-rolled low-carbon deep-drawing steel in the European standard (EN 10130). It is a material with better plasticity and formability in the DC0X series (DC01-DC06) and is designed for complex stamping and deep drawing processes.
What is the elongation of DC04?
DC04 is an ultra-deep drawing grade material among cold-rolled steel sheets. Its elongation is usually required to be ≥38% in the standard. The specific value may vary slightly due to the thickness of the sheet, production process and implementation standards.
What is the meaning of DC04 material?
DC04 is an ultra-high plasticity deep drawing steel achieved through composition optimization (low carbon, aluminum addition) and process control (cold rolling + annealing). Its elongation, n/r value and other indicators are at the high end of cold rolled low carbon steel. D = Deep Drawing, C = Cold Rolled, 04 = Performance grade number
What is the difference between DC04 and DC05?
DC04 and DC05 are both cold-rolled low-carbon steel plates.
DC04 has a carbon content of 0.35%-0.60% and an elongation of ≥38%, which is suitable for general deep drawing applications, such as automotive covers, home appliance housings, etc.; DC05 has a carbon content of 0.60%-0.80% and an elongation of ≥38%. It has better ductility and is suitable for ultra-deep drawing applications, such as manufacturing parts with complex shapes and large deformation, such as some high-precision automotive parts, kitchen utensils with complex shapes, etc.
Is cold rolled steel stronger than stainless steel?
Cold-rolled steel and stainless steel have different uses, so they need to be compared based on specific grades and processes. If you want high strength, you can choose high-strength cold-rolled steel. If you need corrosion resistance and high strength, you can choose martensitic stainless steel (such as 420).
