Value Collection 31976343 Steel Coil 1095 Blue Tempered

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 31976343 is a Grade 1095 blue tempered spring steel coil used in fabrication, tooling, and mechanical applications where consistent material properties and controlled dimensions are required. The coil measures 0.02 inches thick and 6 inches wide, with an 18-foot length that provides usable stock for cutting, forming, or stamping operations. Grade 1095 high-carbon steel in the blue tempered condition offers hardness and spring-back characteristics suited to flat spring components, feeler stock, and shim applications. This material is typically sourced and cut by machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians working in industrial and MRO environments.

This coil is suited for applications requiring a high-carbon spring steel with reliable temper consistency across the full length. Common uses include flat spring manufacture, band stock, retaining strips, and custom fabrication of mechanical components. The 6-inch width and 18-foot length make it practical for bench-top cutting and layout work in job shop, maintenance, and light manufacturing settings. The blue tempered finish indicates a controlled heat treatment that stabilizes hardness and reduces internal stress in the material.

Key Features

• Grade 1095 high-carbon spring steel with blue tempered finish for consistent hardness
• 0.02 inch thickness suitable for flat spring and feeler stock applications
• 6 inch width provides broad stock for cutting multiple part widths from a single coil
• 18-foot coil length reduces the need for multiple short pieces in production runs
• 7.3 pound coil weight makes it manageable for bench-top handling and storage

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose high-carbon spring steel coil for use in fabrication, tooling, MRO maintenance, and custom mechanical component production where Grade 1095 blue tempered material is specified.

Installation Notes

Cutting and forming of high-carbon spring steel should be performed by qualified machinists or fabricators using appropriate tooling rated for hardened steel stock. Eye protection and gloves are recommended when uncoiling or cutting the material, as spring steel can release stored energy when the coil is opened. Avoid bending at sharp radii without appropriate tooling, as Grade 1095 material in the tempered condition is susceptible to cracking under localized stress concentration.
