Value Collection 31977150 Steel Coil 1095 Blue Tempered

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 31977150 is a blue tempered 1095 spring steel coil used in fabrication, toolmaking, and mechanical assembly applications where consistent springback and high tensile strength are required. The coil measures 0.05 inches thick and 1.5 inches wide across a 30-foot length, providing a substantial run of material from a single spool. Grade 1095 blue tempered spring steel is a high-carbon steel that has been heat-treated and stress-relieved, producing a hard, resilient strip suited for clips, springs, strapping, and precision flat stock work. Machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians typically work with this material.

This coil is suited for light industrial and maintenance applications where flat spring steel strip is cut to length and formed into custom components. Common uses include fabricating retaining clips, flat springs, band clamps, and saw blades, as well as repair and replacement of worn spring components in mechanical assemblies. The 30-foot coil length supports both short-run prototype work and small-batch production without requiring large-volume stock. The blue temper finish provides a visual indicator of the heat-treatment process and offers mild surface protection.

Key Features

• Grade 1095 high-carbon spring steel with blue temper heat treatment for consistent hardness and springback
• 0.05 inch thickness provides flexibility for forming while maintaining structural resilience
• 1.5 inch width suits a wide range of flat spring and clip fabrication tasks
• 30-foot coil length delivers usable run for small-batch or prototype cutting and forming
• 7.7 pound coil weight is manageable for bench and shop use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose spring steel strip coil for fabrication and maintenance applications requiring 1095 blue tempered flat stock at 0.05 inch thickness and 1.5 inch width.

Installation Notes

Cutting and forming high-carbon spring steel requires appropriate metal-cutting tools rated for hardened stock; standard tin snips or low-grade blades may chip or deflect on tempered material. Wear appropriate hand and eye protection when uncoiling and cutting, as the material will retain spring tension. Grinding, drilling, or welding 1095 steel may alter the temper locally; consult material specifications before applying heat. Follow applicable shop safety standards when handling sharp-edged strip stock.
