A1008 Cold Roll Carbon Steel

Also known as mild steel, A1008 Cold Roll Carbon steel is a great choice for fabricators, welders, machinists, prototypers who need a strong, reliable parts that are easy to work with. Laser-cut steel may have a small amount of dross (burr) on the underside. Parts may also have small cosmetic imperfections/scratches as a result of the manufacturing process.
