Value Collection 41976780C Steel Coil 1095 Blue Tempered

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 41976780C is a Grade 1095 blue tempered spring steel coil used in fabrication, repair, and tooling applications across mechanical and industrial trades. The coil measures 0.032 inches thick and 1 inch wide, with a total length of 10 feet. Grade 1095 high-carbon spring steel delivers consistent tensile strength and elasticity, making it well suited for applications that require a resilient, flex-resistant metal strip. Blue tempering indicates the steel has been heat-treated and oxidized to a characteristic blue finish, which reflects a controlled hardness and surface condition ready for cutting, forming, or bending without additional processing.

This spring steel coil is commonly used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working on flat springs, retaining clips, shims, wear strips, and custom tooling components. It is appropriate for both bench work and light production environments. The 10-foot coil length provides enough material for multiple short-run parts or a single continuous application requiring a precise, consistent strip. The 1-inch width suits a range of standard spring and wear-strip configurations without requiring additional slitting.

Key Features

• Grade 1095 high-carbon spring steel with blue tempered heat treatment for consistent hardness
• 0.032 inch thickness provides a firm yet workable strip suitable for light spring and clip fabrication
• 1 inch width fits standard tooling and retaining-clip dimensions without resizing
• 10-foot coil length supports multiple cuts or a single continuous application
• Blue tempered surface finish indicates controlled oxidation and uniform hardness across the strip

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-dimension spring steel strip for general fabrication and replacement-part applications requiring Grade 1095 blue tempered material at 0.032 inches thick by 1 inch wide.

Installation Notes

Cutting and forming of hardened spring steel requires appropriate metal-cutting tools such as tin snips, angle grinders, or cold chisels rated for high-carbon steel. Drilling or punching should be performed with carbide-tipped bits to prevent premature tool wear. Edges should be deburred after cutting to prevent injury and to ensure proper fitment in assemblies. Avoid bending sharply at corners without proper radius tooling, as Grade 1095 steel can crack under excessive localized stress.
