Cold Drawn Sheet
Applications
Ideal for projects where precision is essential. The metal is easily formable for moderate draw applications. This makes it ideal for use in many home appliances and metal furniture. Metal filing cabinets and school lockers are commonly made of this metal.
Material
- Yield Strength: 45 KSI
- Tensile Strength: 65 KSI
- Elongation in 2": 22%
- Conforms to:
- ASTM A606
Measurement
Applications
Two to four times more resistant to atmospheric corrosion than low carbon steel. This steel has tightly adherent oxide surface with stops further oxidations. Excellent weldability and formability.

Measurement
Applications
Closer thickness tolerances and better surface than pickled and oiled. The matte finish is ideal for paints, enamels, and lacquers. Soft enough to bend flat on itself in any direction without cracking – ductile enough for many moderate drawing applications. Can be electroplated. Light oil protects surface from rust. End uses include refrigerators, ranges, washing machines, auto and truck bodies, signs, panels, shelving, furniture and stamped parts.
