Edge finish
 |
|
On 8 modern edge dressing machines we are able to provide the edge finish for the
following range:
| Material | Stainless steel | |
| Thickness | 0.2 - 6.0 mm | |
| Width | 5.0 - 300 mm | |
| Coil inside diameter | according to customer specification one-layer winding or oscillated winding |
|
| Surface | 1D | hot rolled, annealed, pickled |
| 2B | cold rolled, annealed, pickled, skin passed | |
| 2D | cold rolled, annealed, mechanically descaled | |
| 2R | cold rolled, bright annealed | |
| 1G/2G | ground | |
| 1J/2J | brushed | |
| Edge finish | gk | slit edges |
| wak | flat rolled edges | |
| sak | fully round edges | |
| bk | sharp rolled edges | |
| Surface protection | paper interleaving | |
| deep drawing and protective films | ||
Please find below a schematic illustration of the different edge finishes:
 |
Untrimmed | Basic coil from the mill without edge trimming. Cracks, ripples, and tines/tears up to 20 mm per side possible. Range of use: Basic coil for slitting and cutting to length, needs to be trimmed. This edge is unsuitable for finished product |
|
 |
BK -Sharp rolled edge | Made starting from slit edge - mechanically rectangular milled off.
Smooth edge, cut or fracture face no longer visible. Subsequently smoothened and aligned through mechanically rolling of the "Cut surface". Standard reference: EN ISO 9445-2:2010 Attention: There is a possibility of surface damage (scratches and marks from rolling) due to the mechanical processing of the material. Range of use: e.g. lock gaiters for door and window locking mechanisms. |
