C45 Carbon Steel Coil
Product Introduction

| Carbon Steel Coil Technical Specifications | |
| Specification | Details |
| Common Grades & Standards | Commercial Quality (CQ, ASTM A366/A619): Good formability for general fabrication. Drawing Quality (DQ, ASTM A620/A621): Superior ductility for deep drawing and severe forming. Structural Quality (ASTM A36, A570 Gr. 50): For structural applications requiring specified mechanical properties. High Strength Low Alloy (HSLA, ASTM A607, A715): Enhanced strength-to-weight ratio via micro-alloying. JIS G3141 SPHC/SPHD/SPHE: Japanese standards for hot/cold rolled coils (SPHE for extra deep drawing). |
| Available Conditions | Hot Rolled (HR): As-rolled at high temperature, with mill scale, for structural/industrial use. Hot Rolled Pickled & Oiled (HRPO): Scale removed via acid pickling, then oiled for protection and weldability. Cold Rolled (CR): Further rolled at room temperature, smooth surface, precise dimensions, higher strength. Annealed (Full Hard, Half Hard, Quarter Hard, Soft): Cold rolled coils heat-treated to specific hardness/temper levels. |
| Thickness Range | Hot Rolled Coil: 1.5 mm (0.059") to 25 mm (0.984") Cold Rolled Coil: 0.3 mm (0.012") to 3.0 mm (0.118") Ultra-Thin CR Coil: Down to 0.15 mm (0.006") for specialized applications. |
| Standard Width Range | Narrow Strip: 20 mm (0.79") to 300 mm (12") Medium Width: 300 mm (12") to 1500 mm (59") Wide Coil: 1500 mm (59") to 2000 mm (79")+ |
| Coil Parameters | Inner Diameter (ID): 508 mm (20") or 610 mm (24") standard. Outer Diameter (OD): Typically 1200 mm (47") to 1800 mm (71") maximum. Coil Weight: 5,000 kg to 30,000 kg (standard), up to 40,000 kg for heavy gauge HR. |
| Key Mechanical Properties (Typical) | ASTM A36 (HR): Yield: 250 MPa (36 ksi), Tensile: 400-550 MPa (58-80 ksi). ASTM A570 Gr. 50 (HR): Yield: 345 MPa (50 ksi) min. DQ SK (CR, Soft): Yield: 170-240 MPa, Tensile: 280-350 MPa, Elongation: 38-45%. HSLA Gr. 50 (CR): Yield: 345 MPa (50 ksi) min, Tensile: 415 MPa (60 ksi) min. |
| Surface Finish (CR Coils) | Matte Finish: Standard dull surface from rolling. Bright Finish: Smoother, more reflective surface. Galvanized (GI) / Galvannealed (GA): Zinc-coated for corrosion protection (separate product category). Electro-Galvanized (EG): Thin zinc coating via electroplating. Pre-Painted/Coated: Coil coated with primer, paint, or laminate. |
| Standard Specifications | Hot Rolled: ASTM A1011, ASTM A569 (CQ), JIS G3131 (SPHC). Cold Rolled: ASTM A1008, ASTM A109, JIS G3141 (SPCC/SPCD/SPCE). HSLA: ASTM A1008/A1011 with Grade designations (e.g., 45, 50, 60, 70). |
| Fabrication Properties | Formability: Excellent for DQ and annealed CR coils; good for CQ and HR. Weldability: Excellent for low-carbon grades; may require special procedures for HSLA. Paintability: Good, may require surface preparation (cleaning, phosphating). |
| Primary Applications | Automotive: Body panels, chassis components, structural parts, wheels. Appliances: Washer/dryer drums, refrigerator liners, oven cavities. Construction: Light structural members, roofing, wall panels, purlins. Furniture & Storage: Shelving, cabinets, lockers, office furniture. General Manufacturing: Stampings, enclosures, tubes, pipes, roll-formed sections. |
