Value Collection 31977192 Steel Coil Grade 1095 Blue Tempered

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 31977192 is a grade 1095 blue tempered spring steel coil used in fabrication, tooling, and mechanical applications that require consistent flatness, high tensile strength, and reliable spring-back characteristics. This coil measures 0.05 inches thick, 6 inches wide, and 7.5 feet long, and weighs 7.7 pounds. The blue tempered finish indicates the steel has been heat-treated and drawn to a hardened, stress-relieved state, making it well suited for cutting, bending, and forming into flat springs, shims, straps, and wear components. Machinists, tool-and-die fabricators, and maintenance technicians working in industrial and mechanical service environments are the primary users.

This coil is appropriate for applications requiring a high-carbon spring steel with controlled hardness and a smooth, consistent surface. Common uses include fabricating flat springs, feeler-style gauges, retaining strips, scrapers, and custom shim stock. The 6-inch width and 7.5-foot length provide enough material for multiple parts from a single piece. The 0.05-inch thickness is within the range commonly specified for medium-duty flat spring components in both OEM production and aftermarket repair scenarios.

Key Features

• Grade 1095 high-carbon steel for strong spring-back and durability in formed components
• Blue tempered finish indicates heat-treated, stress-relieved condition ready for cutting and forming
• 0.05-inch thickness suitable for flat springs, shims, and wear strips
• 6-inch width supports a range of part sizes from a single coil
• 7.7-pound coil weight at 7.5 feet long provides substantial material per unit

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose grade 1095 blue tempered spring steel coil suitable for fabrication, tooling, and mechanical repair applications where high-carbon flat spring stock is specified.

Installation Notes

Cutting and forming of hardened spring steel requires appropriate metal-cutting tools such as hardened shears, angle grinders, or band saws rated for high-carbon material. Wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and cut-resistant gloves when handling sheared edges. Avoid torch cutting where preserving the tempered properties near the cut edge is required. If secondary heat forming is performed, the blue tempered condition of the material will be altered and re-tempering may be necessary.
