Steel Stamping Parts

Benefits of Steel Stampings

Steel is one of the most versatile and economical metals used for stampings. It is a strong material, and can be combined with other metals to form alloys with varying levels of strength and hardness. In addition, a stamped part can be heat treated after stamping to increase its strength or hardness. This allows a softer steel alloy to be used to manufacture a more complex part and still achieve the metal strength required for the application.

Steel Types for Stamping

The most common types of steel are hot rolled, pickled and oiled, cold rolled, galvanized, bar stock and 4130 alloy. Most steels can be case hardened. Alloy steel can be through hardened, significantly increasing the strength of the part. In addition to the versatility of steel for manufacturing, it accepts a variety of finishes, from inexpensive coatings such as zinc and cadmium to more expensive chromes and paint.

As a green material, steel is fully recyclable. We maintain a complete inventory of the most common steel, steel alloys and laminates, with sheet stock thickness from .001-.250”. Most of our galvanized steels and coatings are RoHS compliant. We can also provide specialty alloys or work with metal you provide.
