SPCC Steel -DC01/St12 Cold Rolled Steel Sheet & Strip

 

What is SPCC Steel ?

 

SPCC steel refers to a type of cold-rolled steel, and it stands for "Steel Plate Cold Commercial." It is a Japanese industrial standard (JIS G 3141) used to define the material characteristics of cold-rolled carbon steel sheets and strips. SPCC steel is known for its excellent formability, smooth surface finish, and consistent thickness.

 

 

 

Here's a breakdown of the term:

 

1. Steel Plate Cold Commercial (SPCC): This indicates that the steel is intended for commercial use and has undergone a cold-rolling process. Cold-rolling involves reducing the thickness of the steel by passing it through rollers at low temperatures.

2. JIS G 3141: This is the Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) that specifies the classification, chemical composition, and mechanical properties of cold-rolled carbon steel sheets and strips.

SPCC steel is commonly used in various applications such as automotive components, home appliances, electronic goods, and other products where a smooth and uniform surface finish is required. Additionally, its formability makes it suitable for shaping and bending during manufacturing processes.
