Value Collection 31975295 Steel Coil 1095 Blue Tempered

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 31975295 is a blue tempered 1095 spring steel coil used in fabrication, toolmaking, and precision mechanical applications. The coil measures 0.002 inches thick and 3/4 inch wide with a total length of 85 feet, giving fabricators a continuous run of material for high-volume cutting or forming operations. Grade 1095 spring steel is a high-carbon alloy known for its hardness and elasticity after tempering, making it a standard choice for flat springs, clock springs, retaining clips, and similar components. The blue temper finish indicates a controlled heat treatment that improves surface hardness and wear resistance. Machinists, toolmakers, and metal fabricators are the primary end users.

This coil suits production and job-shop environments where flat spring stock is cut to length or formed into custom components. The 0.002-inch gauge is on the thinner end of spring steel strip stock, fitting applications that require high flexibility with moderate load resistance. Typical uses include light-duty flat springs, shims, feeler-gauge blanks, and precision stampings. The 85-foot length reduces the frequency of coil changeovers on automated or semi-automated cutting setups.

Key Features

• Grade 1095 high-carbon spring steel with blue temper heat treatment for consistent hardness and elasticity
• 0.002-inch thickness suitable for light-duty flat springs and precision flexible components
• 3/4-inch width in an 85-foot continuous coil for extended production runs
• Blue temper finish improves surface hardness and provides a visual indicator of the tempering process
• Single-coil packaging with a minimum order quantity of one unit

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose spring steel strip stock for fabrication, toolmaking, and mechanical assembly applications requiring Grade 1095 blue tempered material at 0.002-inch thickness.

Installation Notes

Cutting and forming of hardened spring steel strip requires appropriate metal-cutting tools rated for high-carbon alloys; standard tin snips or low-speed saws may cause edge cracking. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling coiled strip stock, as edges and the coil spring-back present a laceration hazard. Any heat applied during forming or welding operations may alter the temper state and change the mechanical properties of the finished component.
