Corus produces hot rolled narrow strip, up to 500m wide, in a variety of grades. Each product offers a set of specific properties.

Our narrow steel strip products for the automotive market include:

Low carbon grades
Properties: Combination of good strength and ductility. Available in a variety of yield and tensile strength ranges to suit specific applications.
Typical applications: Automotive and agricultural wheels, pulley wheels, ratchets and lock parts.

High-strength, low alloy grades
Properties: HYPRESS® steels offer excellent strength to weight ratios, along with good formability and weldability.
Typical applications: Seat-reclining mechanisms, seat-belt pre-tensioners, seat rails and brake components.

Medium to high carbon grades
Properties: Available with a wide range of yield and tensile strengths. Higher carbon levels give greater hardness and abrasion resistance.
Typical applications: clutch diaphragm springs

Alloy grades
Properties: Alloying additions, including manganese, chromium, vanadium, nickel, silicon and tungsten, create specific properties for different applications. Alloys improve hardenability during heat treatment.
Typical applications: Clutch components, lock and latch mechanism parts.
