Cold Rolled Carbon Steel Sheet Global Grade Comparison

Cold rolled carbon steel sheet is a kind of carbon steel material which is rolled into thin plates by cold rolling process, common grades are SPCC, SPCD, SPCE, DC01, DC02, CS Type A, CS Type B, etc. According to the grades, it can be classified into ultra-deep-drawing grade, deep-drawing grade, stamping grade, common grade, Wanzhi Group provides cold rolled steel materials in accordance with international standards such as GB, ASTM, EN, JIS, etc. and GI, GL, ZAM, PPGI, PPGL steel made from cold rolled steel as substrate. Wanzhi Group provides cold rolled steel materials in accordance with international standards such as GB, ASTM, EN, JIS, and GI, GL, ZAM, PPGI, PPGL steel made from cold rolled steel substrates.
