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 for bending, shaping and forming, before heat treatment. Close International equivalents are Din CK67, AISI/SAE 1070 and Euronorm C67S.
CS80 is usually supplied in the ready hardened or ... Read More

Whilst steel mills regularly insist on minimum order quantities of up to 5 tons, and stockholders upwards of a ton, we have recognised the need of smaller engineering companies who may require as little as a single sheet to complete a project, or to replace a part in an ageing piece of plant.
It can be frustrating and time consuming ... Read More
