Carbon or Hardness Products
Guaranteed chemical composition or minimum hardness
BlueScope produces a Cold Rolled product based on carbon content with guaranteed chemical composition as well as three Cold Rolled hardness products with guaranteed minimum hardness.
The carbon products are typically used in bearings, hardened washers, seals, hinges, and the hardness products are typically used in drum bodies and ends as well as container markets.
Excellent weldability, formability and bending are the key attributes of these products.
