Value Collection 31977242 Steel Coil 1095 Blue Tempered

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 31977242 is a blue tempered 1095 spring steel coil used in fabrication, tool-and-die, and maintenance applications where consistent spring tension and high fatigue resistance are required. The coil measures 0.062 inches thick by 0.5 inches wide and runs 70 feet in length, providing ample material for multiple cuts or formed parts. Grade 1095 blue tempered spring steel is a high-carbon alloy known for its hardness, elasticity, and resistance to deformation under repeated load cycles. The coil ships as a single unit and is well suited for machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians who need a reliable raw material stock for custom spring or band applications.

This coil is appropriate for shop and field fabrication tasks including the manufacture of flat springs, retaining bands, shims, and wear strips. Its narrow 0.5-inch width and uniform 0.062-inch thickness make it easy to cut to length with snips or a cold saw and form on standard tooling. Both light industrial and heavy maintenance environments are typical use scenarios. The blue temper finish provides a degree of corrosion resistance and serves as a visual indicator of the heat treatment process, confirming consistent hardness throughout the coil.

Key Features

• Grade 1095 high-carbon spring steel for high hardness and fatigue resistance
• Blue tempered finish confirms uniform heat treatment and provides mild corrosion protection
• 0.062-inch thickness suitable for flat spring and retaining band fabrication
• 0.5-inch width for narrow-profile applications and precise forming
• 70-foot continuous coil length reduces splicing and material waste on longer runs
• Single-coil packaging with no minimum order beyond one unit

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose raw material stock for flat spring, band, and shim fabrication across light industrial, tool-and-die, and maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

Cutting and forming of hardened spring steel should be performed by qualified machinists or fabricators using appropriate cold-cutting tools. Wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection when cutting or uncoiling spring steel, as the stored tension can cause the coil to spring rapidly when released. Avoid flame-cutting or grinding without controlling heat input, as excessive heat can alter the temper and reduce spring properties. Follow applicable shop safety standards when working with high-carbon steel stock.
