Reliance Metalcenter in Union City offers cold-rolled carbon steel sheet in stock and ready to ship, with next day delivery available to northern California.Cold-rolled steel (CRS) sheet is a carbon steel that is first hot rolled, then rolled at room temperature (below its recrystallization temperature). Cold rolling gives this steel greater strength, tighter thickness tolerances, and a smoother surface compared to hot-rolled steel. Cold-rolled steel’s very smooth and uniform surface is ideal for visible or painted surfaces, and has generally good formability and machinability, with higher yield and tensile strength along with much tighter tolerances for dimensional accuracy. Cold-rolled steel is commonly used in metal stamping and forming, construction and architectural trim, furniture and filing cabinets, home appliances, and automotive panels and parts.
