Compared to hot rolled steel, cold rolled strip provides an improved surface and shape, and can create useful combinations of hardness, strength, stiffness, ductility, and other characteristics. At Worthington, we work with you to help determine the exact chemistry, structure, and process that will yield the cold rolled steel you need for optimal quality and performance.

Using steel from various sources, component stampers had a customer problem: after exposure to heat, the manufactured plates were out-of-flat at service. Read how Worthington explored residual stress and warpage—and figured out how to ensure part stability.

Cold rolled sheet still provides improved mechanical properties compared to hot-rolled steel. In sheet form, our steel offers many of the benefits of cold rolled strip, manufactured at wider widths, with wider thickness tolerances to make it more economical.

Collaborate with us to take advantage of the latest manufacturing advancements. Recently, new technology enabled our 56 mill to increase capacity by putting more tons through and delivering wider gauge range, with the fastest turnaround time in the industry. See our speed, service, quality, and on-time delivery in action.

Because cold rolled steel can be used in almost any product imaginable (from cars to coins), our wide gauge range from .010 to .375 inches is just the beginning. We’re a one-stop shop, with the expertise, experience, and capacity to add:

• First operation blanking
• Coil-fed laser blanking
• Slitting, oscillate slitting
• One-pass rolling, temper rolling
• Cut-to-length sheets
• Pickling, annealing
• Laser welding
