Cold rolled sheet metal properties.

Find cold rolled steel sheet metal at lowe s today. Cold rolled 1008 1010 steel physical properties. When a steel section is cold formed from flat sheet or strip the yield strength and to a lesser extent the ultimate strength are increased as a result of this cold working particularly in the bends of the section. The rolls induce plastic deformation.

Additionally non standard finishes are available. Surface finish cold rolled steels are manufactured with a matte finish obtained by rolling with specially roughened rolls on the cold mill and the temper mill. As an example a hot rolled steel product may have a yield strength of 235 mpa. When steel is formed by press braking or cold rolled forming there is a change in the mechanical properties of the material by virtue of the cold working of the metal.

In comparison a cold rolled steel product with the same chemical composition has a yield strength of 365 mpa. Thus the yield strength of cold rolled steel is higher than that of hot rolled steel.
