A 1008 Steel Sheet
A1008 is a standard specification for cold rolled carbon steel.
A 1008 steel sheet. Astm a1008 cs type b sheet is a cold rolled low carbon high strength steel alloy sheet with improved formability. It is a commercial quality alloy that has an oiled surface with a smooth matte finish often used in furniture home appliances and the automotive industry. Carbon steel sheethot rolled sheet including pickled oiled low carbon commercial steel 1008 1010 sae j403 astm a1011 cs type b a569 cq est est. The process of cold rolling the sheet creates a smooth surface which is typically oiled to prevent surface rust from forming.
Compared to hot rolled steel a1008 is known for having excellent weldability and formability. Cold rolled steel sheet cold rolled steel sheet is essentially hot rolled steel that has been further processed to increase its strength and strength to weight ratio. The surface is matte finish and is oiled to prevent rust allowing for use in exposed applications. The process of cold rolling the sheet creates a smooth surface which is typically oiled to prevent surface rust from forming.
It is available in thicknesses from 0 005 to 0 134 in drawing quality up through full hard tempers. Request a quick quote for more details. It is manufactured by annealing and temper rolling hot rolled steel sheets to provide formability surface texture and flatness. Our cold rolled steel is ideal for use in home appliances and furniture automotive bodies and a number of other applications.
