How Blue-Tempered Steel Strip Is Made

Blue-tempered steel strip is widely used in tools, blades, spring washers, saw bands, measuring tools, and industrial components requiring a combination of high hardness, strong elasticity, and excellent fatigue resistance. Its signature blue surface is not simply for aesthetics — it is the result of a precise heat treatment process designed to enhance performance. In […]
Is Cold-Rolled Steel Fireproof? | Heat Resistance and Safety of Steel Strips

1. Introduction When selecting materials for construction, automotive, or industrial tools, engineers often ask:“Is cold-rolled steel fireproof?” The simple answer is no, steel is not completely fireproof.However, cold-rolled steel is highly fire-resistant, maintaining structural integrity and mechanical strength at temperatures where many other materials fail. In this article, we’ll explore how cold-rolled steel behaves under […]
Why Band Saw Blades Use Hardened and Tempered Steel Strips

A band saw blade is only as good as the steel it’s made from. To achieve precise cutting performance, long service life, and resistance to wear, the material behind every blade must combine strength, flexibility, and durability. That’s why most high-quality band saw blades are made from hardened and tempered steel strips — carefully heat-treated […]
The Relationship Between Hardness and Tensile Strength in Steel Strips

In the world of steel strip manufacturing, two mechanical properties are often discussed together — hardness and tensile strength. These characteristics define how steel behaves under force and determine its suitability for applications like springs, blades, saws, and precision tools. Understanding their relationship helps engineers and buyers choose the right steel for their needs. 1. […]
High Carbon Steel vs. Stainless Steel: Heat Treatment Secrets & Choosing the Right Metal for the Job

When it comes to steel, not all strips are created equal. If you’re making springs, blades, tools, or parts that need to last under stress, choosing between high carbon steel and stainless steel can feel like walking a tightrope. Both have strengths. Both have limits. And at the heart of it all? Heat treatment. Let’s […]
