Value Collection 31975386 Steel Coil 1095 Blue Tempered

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 31975386 is a Grade 1095 blue tempered spring steel coil used in fabrication, toolmaking, maintenance, and industrial repair applications. It measures 0.004 inches thick, 6 inches wide, and 12 feet long. The blue temper treatment relieves internal stress and increases hardness and springback, making this coil well suited for parts that must flex and return to shape under load. Machinists, tool-and-die shops, and maintenance technicians use this material to cut, form, and shape flat springs, shims, strapping, and similar precision components. The coil weighs approximately 1 pound and ships as a single unit.

This spring steel coil is appropriate for light-gauge flat spring fabrication, shimming, strapping, and general precision metalworking. Its 0.004-inch gauge is on the thinner end of the spring steel range, making it suitable for applications requiring fine flexibility and close tolerances. Typical users include industrial maintenance personnel, machinists, and metalworking fabricators working with hand tools or bench equipment. The 12-foot length provides enough working stock for multiple small parts from a single coil.

Key Features

• Grade 1095 high-carbon steel with blue temper treatment for consistent hardness and springback
• 0.004-inch thickness provides fine flexibility for light-duty flat spring and shim applications
• 6-inch width allows cutting to a variety of strip widths from a single coil
• 12-foot length yields substantial working stock for small-batch fabrication
• Blue temper finish reduces internal stress and helps resist corrosion during storage

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose spring steel coil for industrial fabrication, maintenance, and toolmaking applications where Grade 1095 blue tempered material at 0.004-inch gauge is specified.

Installation Notes

Cutting and forming spring steel should be performed by qualified machinists or metalworkers using appropriate shears, slitters, or bench tools rated for high-carbon steel. Wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection when uncoiling or cutting this material, as edges are sharp and the coil stores significant spring energy. Avoid bending at extreme angles without annealing first, as 1095 steel at this temper is susceptible to cracking under sharp deformation.
