Hot rolled pickled steel strip for cold forming is a type of steel strip that undergoes a pickling process after being hot rolled. This process involves removing the oxide scale from the surface of the steel, resulting in a clean and smooth surface. The pickled steel strip is designed for further cold forming processes, such as stamping and bending, and is commonly used in automotive, appliance, and furniture manufacturing. The pickling process improves surface quality, formability, and dimensional tolerances of the finished product. It is made from low carbon or ultra-low carbon steels known for their ductility and formability, and the pickling process ensures high-quality finished products in cold forming operations.
