Steel Strip

In the UK over 90% of cold rolled spring steel sales are in CS70 and CS80 grades. Both grades are part of the BS1449 standard.
Both grades are high carbon "spring" steel used in a variety of applications where high tensile strength is required.
CS70 is normally supplied in the annealed condition, in which it is suitable [...]

BSS are pleased to advise that we are now able to offer small quantities of stainless spring steel from stock.
Temper rolled Stainless Steel Shim 1.4310 (AISI 301) This Steel has a good corrosion resistance due to a content of 17 % Chromium and 7 % Nickel. A high tensile strength is [...]

The commonest steel grades used in the UK for spring manufacture are CS70 and CS80, being part of BS1449. They are equivalent to EN10132 Euronorm grades C67S C75S and C85S which can be found here. For thinner gauges and where a higher a hardness is required, CS95 is often used.
The material can be supplied in [...]

We are all now aware of the escalating costs of steel. Whilst the steel makers began increasing steel prices in January, the cost of cold rolled steel strip has been  slower to catch up. The increases are now however beginning to impact upon the cold rolled marketplace, with prices increasing rapidly around the world.
Whilst changing [...]

Searching for details of steel specifications on the web can be frustrating. General search engines do a good job of general searches and can return highly relevant results on many subjects. The practice however of naming steel specifications by a sequence of letters and numbers can make it difficult for the searches to return the [...]

EN 10132-4 is the European Standard for cold rolled narrow steel strip for heat treatment. These grades are commonly used in the production of springs, washers, circlips, hand tools, blades etc.
Typically after pressing and forming in the annealed condition, the components are then heat treated to achieve the required hardness and tensile strengths.
Details of the [...]

Hardening and Tempering is a thermal process that strengthens steel through a controlled heating and cooling process Hardened and tempered steel strip, is used in many applications including saws, cutting tools as well as springs.
This process will result in improved mechanical properties and give a tougher more durable product. The hardening process involves heating the [...]
