Introduction
Baosteel cold rolled low carbon steel plate and strip are the primary products of Baosteel and its affiliates. They are widely used in automotive, construction, machinery and other industries. Baosteel cold rolled low carbon steel products include hot-rolled steel sheets, cold-rolled steel sheets, galvanized sheets, medium and thin steel sheets, silicon steel sheets and other coil products.
Carbon Content
Baosteel cold rolled low carbon steel plate and strip products generally contain 0.08 to 0.15 percent carbon. The low carbon content gives the steel its superior machinability, strength, formability and excellent weldability. The high carbon content contributes to the formation of the corrosion-resistant oxide layer.
Surface Protection
Baosteel cold rolled low carbon steel plate and strip products have a thin layer of surface protection. The surface protection can protect the surface against corrosion and scratching and make cleaning the surface easier. To further increase the corrosion resistance of the steel, Baosteel cold rolled low carbon steel products are also available with phosphate coating or zinc coating.
Coil Forming
Baosteel cold rolled low carbon steel plate and strip products can be formed into coils of various sizes and shapes. The coil forming process helps to optimize the properties of the steel and analyze the mechanical properties like tensile strength and hardness. The coil forming process can also be used for bending, stretching and flattening the steel.
Applications
Baosteel cold rolled low carbon steel plate and strip products are widely used in automotive, construction and machine parts. The superior machinability and strength of these products make them ideal for parts and components in heavy duty machine parts and automotive engine components. The corrosion resistance of the steel also makes it an excellent choice for applications in marine and coastal areas.
Conclusion
Baosteel cold rolled low carbon steel plate and strip products are the perfect choice for many components and applications. The low carbon content, superior machinability and strength, and corrosion resistance make them an ideal choice for many industries. The thin layer of surface protection and availability of phosphate coating or zinc coating further increase the corrosion resistance of the steel. The coil forming process helps to optimize the properties of the steel and analyze the mechanical properties like tensile strength and hardness.
