Description

DC03 AM FCE is a cold rolled non-alloyed mild steel grades with guaranteed maximum yield and tensile strength, guaranteed minimum ductility (elongation at fracture) and good formability (n and r values). These grades comply with the requirements of the EN 10130:2006 standard and are obtained after either batch or continuous annealing. This steel grade has excellent formability, which facilitates cold forming operations, and are ideal for deep drawing. This steel for cold forming also offer excellent forming performance, due to the low scattering of their chemical composition and their mechanical properties, which guarantees processing consistency.
