Steel DC01 – EN 10130

Steel DC01 is a cold-rolled low-carbon unwrought mild steel grade. It belongs to the European standard EN 10130 and is characterized by its excellent formability, versatility and good weldability. Steel DC01 is used in various industrial and commercial applications where low carbon content and formability are important factors.

Characteristics and advantages of steel DC01:

  • Formability: DC01 steel has excellent formability and can be shaped and bent with ease. It can undergo various cold forming processes, including bending, pressing and rolling, to create components with complex shapes and high precision.

 

  • Versatility: Steel DC01 is versatile and can be used in various construction projects and applications. It can be used to manufacture a wide range of components and products, including automotive bodies, pipelines, fasteners and details in the construction sector.

 

  • Weldability: Steel DC01 has good weldability and can be welded using different welding methods such as MIG (Metal Inert Gas) and TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas). This makes it possible to create strong and durable joints in steel structures and facilitates the assembly process.

 

  • Surface quality: Steel DC01 has a smooth and even surface after cold rolling, giving it an aesthetically pleasing finish. The surface can be unfinished or undergo additional finishing treatments, such as painting or galvanizing, to increase corrosion resistance and improve appearance.

 

  • Applications: Steel DC01 is used in various sectors and applications, including automotive, construction, household appliances, metal furniture and pipeline manufacturing. Its low carbon content and formability make it a popular choice for components and structures where simple forming processes and versatility are required.

In summary, steel DC01 is a cold-rolled mild steel grade with low carbon content and excellent formability. Its versatility, weldability and surface quality make it a sought-after material in various industries and applications where formability, low carbon content and a smooth surface are important factors.
