Description

The Easy Punch grade has guaranteed mechanical properties and roughness. Magnetic properties are not guaranteed, as they are not optimised in this product. Should the application require enhanced magnetic performance, other electrical steel grades in our product range are recommended. This Easy Punch grade has excellent punchability and stackability, thanks to appropriate mechanical properties and roughness. It is therefore eminently suitable for automatic stacking and assembling techniques. The excellent punchability is achieved by means of a final skin-pass treatment, which produces high Re/Rm values (over 0.9). Easy Punch also has excellent weldability.

This material data has been provided by ArcelorMittal.

"Typical" values were obtained via a literature search. "Predicted" values were imputed via artificial intelligence technology. While we have placed significant efforts in ensuring data accuracy, "typical" and "predicted" data should be considered indicative and verified by appropriate material testing. Please do contact us if additional information on the the predicted data method is required.
All metrics apply to room temperature unless otherwise stated. SI units used unless otherwise stated.
Equivalent standards are similar to one or more standards provided by the supplier. Some equivalent standards may be stricter whereas others may be outside the bounds of the original standard.

Technological properties

Property

Application areas

The Easy Punch grade is designed for small machines for intermittent use:

Automotive equipment such as alternators, windscreen wipers, window-opening motors

Small domestic appliances such as coffee grinders, mixers

Small hand tools such as drills

Coating

This Easy Punch grade is available non-insulated. Corrosion protection can be enhanced by applying a light oiling treatment.

Other

Usually, the client does not perform heat treatment after punching. Heat treatment is an option to increase the magnetic performance of Easy Punch.

Dimensions:

The Easy Punch grade is available in thicknesses ranging from 0.5 to 1.2 mm. For thicknesses less than 0.7 mm, the width may not exceed 1400 mm.
