Oscillated Coil or Not

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 19:30:50 +0000

One spool of oscillated steel coil with a capacity of 60000' feet can do the work of twenty standard 3000' coils. On long run production jobs requiring thicknesses from .010 to .060 and widthsof 1/4 inch up to 1 1/2 inch, one continuous oscillated coil means 1 production start up instead of 20.

Precision Stak Pak - a group of slit, uniform, tight ribbon wound coils, and only held together by two sided tape on the inside and outside wraps of each coil. Guaranteed not to fall apart resulting in less chance of damage in transit and quicker delivery. For more info on Precision Stak Pak - Open PDF

Sheet Steel or Strip Steel

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 19:28:12 +0000

Concerning these so very similar and yet so distinctly different products, the real
and fundamental difference is QUALITY. While both types are stocked by us and
are available in all tempers and quantities over 1 lb., the practical problem of choice
is. . . FIRST COST VS. FINAL COST. There are many instances where the cheaper
"sheet coil" will do and all costs are considered at a savings. On the contrary,there
are many instances where "genuine strip steel only" will do at a final cost less than
sheet steel.

SELECT SHEET COIL

sheet steel's broad tolerances will do.
the fabricating operations are not too
complicated and do not require
intricate, expensive dies.
high speed production is not required
fairly heavy, oversize gauge variations
are not objectionable.
If a fine surface finish is not essential.
a good base for paint or enamel is
desired.
if wide variations in physical characteristics
are permissible.

SELECT STRIP STEEL

if strip steel's close tolerances
are required.
you wish to avoid rapid die wear
due to heavy oversize gauge variations.
If high speed production methods
are employed.
If you want maximum "square footage"
for greatest parts yield per ton.
If you require a fine finish or a better
base for plating.
If you must have a high degree of
uniformity of chemistry and physical
properties - plus precision tolerances.
If you want selected tempers for
maximum strength and lightest weight.

Both products are available in coil and cut lengths and
in all tempers and quantities of one pound and over.
