Description

Slit strip is narrow strip produced by slitting a wide coil lengthwise with circular knives on a slitting line; each strip is wound into a separate coil. The parent coil is hot-rolled (St3sp, St3ps, Q235B, 09G2S, Q355B), cold-rolled (08ps, DC01, SPCC) or galvanized (DX51D+Z): the slit strip inherits the grade, thickness and mill test certificate of the parent coil, while the width is set to suit the workpiece. For electric-welded tube the strip width is calculated from the mean diameter, π·(D − t), with an allowance for reduction and sizing, so it is specified to the millimetre.

Details

The difference between slit strip from hot-rolled and from cold-rolled coil is the same as between the coils: thickness from 1.5 mm with scale or a pickled surface in the first case, 0.5–3 mm with a smooth oiled surface in the second. The slit edge is specified separately: burr height, camber (deviation from straightness along the length) and width tolerance — to GOST 6009 for hot-rolled strip, GOST 503 for cold-rolled, EN 10048 and EN 10051 for export batches. Mills in China slit strip to GB/T 3524 and GB/T 716.

Inspection at the mill before shipment: width with callipers on several wraps of each coil, thickness with a micrometer at the edges and in the middle of the strip, burr height, camber on an unwound length, tightness of winding and telescoping, surface condition. The mill test certificate (MTC) is checked against the heat number of the parent coil on the tag: grade, chemical composition, mechanical properties. Marking of each strip coil, stacking on the pallet, strapping and moisture protection are checked.

Applications

  • feedstock for electric-welded round and hollow section tube
  • roll-formed profiles: track, stud, zed and sigma
  • banding for packing, strapping and reinforcement
  • cable trays and perforated profiles
  • racking systems and shelving
  • galvanized slit strip for downpipes and drywall profiles

Packing and shipment

Slit strip coils are stacked on a pallet eye-up or horizontally, strapped with steel band to each other and to the pallet, and wrapped in moisture-proof film; a tag on each coil with the parent coil heat number, grade, thickness, width and weight.

Buyer questions

How to read a mill test certificate (MTC) for coil
Four blocks in the certificate must agree: the heat number and coil number with the tag on the coil; the grade and standard with the specification; the chemical composition with the limits of the standard for that grade; the mechanical properties (yield strength, tensile strength, elongation) with the values required by the standard. For galvanized coil the zinc coating weight is added, for colour-coated coil the type and thickness of the paint layer. The bureau checks the MTC against the heat at the mill before shipment and hands over the original with the batch.
How hot-rolled coil differs from cold-rolled
Hot-rolled coil is rolled above the recrystallisation temperature: thickness from 1.5 mm, surface with mill scale, wider thickness tolerance. Cold-rolled coil is made from hot-rolled by pickling and cold reduction followed by annealing: thickness from 0.3 mm, smooth surface, tighter tolerance, and the steel is more ductile after annealing. Welded tube, profiles and structures take hot-rolled; pressing, body panels, galvanizing and painting take cold-rolled.
How coil tonnage is calculated
The theoretical weight of one square metre is 7.85 kg per millimetre of thickness; the coil weight is the strip area multiplied by that figure. Shipment and payment go by the actual weight from weighing, recorded in the certificate and on the tag; the difference from the theoretical weight comes from the thickness tolerance. The specification states tonnes, not the number of coils, and separately the maximum weight of one coil and the inside diameter to suit your decoiler.
What the bureau inspector checks at the mill before shipment
Thickness with a micrometer on the outer wrap at several points across the width and on the coil end face; width with a tape; telescoping and tightness of winding; condition of the edge and surface; the heat number on the tag against the MTC; for galvanized coil the uniformity of the coating and absence of bare spots, for stainless coil the grade with a positive material identification (PMI) analyser; packing and strapping. The result is an inspection report with photographs. Rejects recorded in the report are replaced; the replacement is supplied by the mill under its contract with the bureau.
How the batch is sized
The batch is sized to your volume — send your specification: grade and standard, thickness with tolerance, width, surface condition, for coated coil the zinc class and polymer type with the RAL colour, plus the inside diameter and maximum weight of a coil. Mills roll coil to order by width and thickness, so the more precise the specification, the fewer approvals are needed. The bureau selects a mill for that specification and returns confirmed delivery terms.
