Value Collection 41977530C Spring Steel Sheet 12.375x24x0.042 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 41977530C is a Grade 1095 blue tempered spring steel sheet used in fabrication, tooling, and maintenance applications across a range of trades and industrial settings. Measuring 12.375 inches wide by 24 inches long by 0.042 inches thick, this sheet provides the flex and resilience characteristic of high-carbon spring steel. Grade 1095 is a high-carbon steel alloy known for its hardness and fatigue resistance after heat treatment. The blue temper finish indicates the steel has been heat-treated and stress-relieved to a specific hardness range, making it suitable for applications that require controlled springback. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians typically work with this material for shims, blades, scrapers, and spring components.

This spring steel sheet is suited for light fabrication and precision fit-up tasks where dimensional consistency and material resilience matter. Common applications include cutting custom shims, forming spring clips, and producing wear strips or scraper blades. The 0.042-inch thickness falls in a mid-light gauge range, making it workable with standard metal-cutting tools while still providing adequate stiffness for flat-spring and blade applications. Shops handling HVAC equipment, industrial machinery, or general metalwork will find this sheet useful for on-the-spot fabrication and replacement part production.

Installation Notes

Cutting and forming spring steel requires appropriate metal-cutting tools such as tin snips, band saws with metal blades, or shears rated for high-carbon steel. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling edges, as sheared spring steel can hold a sharp burr. Deburr all cut edges before use in assemblies or contact applications. When using this sheet as a shim or wear surface in mechanical equipment, ensure the mating surfaces are clean and free of debris before installation.
