# ASTM A1008 Cold Rolled Steel

Cold Rolled Steel may be a mill product made with a high degree of gauge accuracy and uniformity of physical characteristics. the graceful deoxidized matte finish gives a superb base for paint, lacquer and enamel. Box annealing and absence of scale permit stamping and moderate drawing operations. Sheets bend flat on themselves without cracking. Oiling protects surface against rust. Our Cold Rolled sheet and coil conform to ASTM A1008M.

The application of surface oil to cold rolled steel sheet is meant to supply protection from corrosion ("rusting") during shipment and warehousing. Because cold rolled steel sheet is susceptible to rusting, standard practice is to use a rust-preventative oil at the exit end of the temper mill (the last processing step). Rust-preventative oils are different than forming lubricants therein they contain special corrosion-inhibiting additions. additionally to the oil, Curtis Steel maintains clean, dry environments in climate controlled warehouses in the least its facilities to make sure our coils and sheets arrive to you in prime condition.

# ASTM A1008 Cold Rolled Steel Products
Cold rolled sheet products are available for several , a few years , and are successfully used for a mess of applications. Today's cold rolled sheet products are much improved over those utilized in the past. they provide better control of thickness, shape, width, surface finish, and other special quality features that flatter the emerging need for highly engineered end use applications.
