DESCRIPTION

Cold rolled sheet metal is a type of sheet metal that has been processed by passing it through rollers at room temperature, which compresses and strengthens the metal, resulting in a smoother surface finish and tighter dimensional tolerances compared to hot rolled sheet metal; essentially, it’s hot rolled steel that has undergone additional processing at a low temperature to improve its properties.

Key points about cold rolled sheet metal:

Process: After being hot rolled, the steel is cooled to room temperature and then, passed through rollers again, applying high pressure to shape it further.

Benefits: Higher strength, better surface finish, closer dimensional tolerances.

Drawbacks: It can be more expensive due to the additional processing step.

Common applications: Appliances, furniture, automotive parts, and construction components where a smooth finish is desired

* Prices subject to change without notice due to the Metals Market fluctuations.
* All ‘value length’ and ‘value pack’ item measurements are subject to a “mill tolerance”. A product may be produced several thousandths of an inch, either over or under the stated thickness, and still be within “mill tolerance”. This does NOT apply to Cut To Size items. Those will be +.125″, -0.00″ tolerances.
