Cold rolled sheet products have been available for many, many years, and have been successfully used for a multitude of applications. Today's cold rolled sheet products are much improved over those used in the past. They offer better control of thickness, shape, width, surface finish, and other special quality features that compliment the emerging need for highly engineered end use applications.
Cold rolled sheet products are used in a wide variety of end applications such as appliances - refrigerators, washers, dryers, and other small appliances, automobiles - exposed as well as unexposed parts, electric motors, and bathtubs. Cold rolled sheet products are used in these and many other areas of manufacturing. To meet the various end use requirements, cold-rolled sheet products are metallurgically designed to provide specific attributes such as high formability, deep drawability, high strength, high dent resistance, good magnetic properties, enamelability, and paintability.
