Thickness: | 0.006", 0.008", 0.012", 0.015", 0.018", 0.020" Thickness tolerance is T2 based on the internationally recognized Swedish Tolerance Tables for Precision Strip Steel. |
Width Range: | Various - from "wide" heat-treated, polished and inspected stock. Width tolerance +/- 0.005" |
Surface Finish: | Bright hardened and bright polished Ra < 6uin. Maximum surface roughness. Value is determined with profilometer set to a cut-off length of 0.01in. The maximum depth of light scratches is 2um. Sporadic light surface defects of a maximum 4um will be tolerated as long as they are not surface discontinuities which would affect fatigue properties of the strip. |
Flatness: | 0.002" PIW (0.2% of the nominal strip width) |
Structure: | A matrix of fine tempered martensite with a uniform distribution of fine carbides. No decarburization is allowed. |
Edge Condition | Slit, deburred. Skived edges can be supplied for special valve applications. |
