Custom Process Assures Uniform Hardness and Coil-to-Coil Consistency --Enhancing Spring Performance and Reducing Time and Material Costs

Kenilworth, NJ: Custom strip steel processed by Blue Blade Steel Co. provides spring manufacturers and their customers with brand-enhancing extra value features that include product consistency, reliability, outstanding spring performance and impressive production economies.

"Manufacturing strip steel in our computer-automated process control operation, enables us to produce virtually flawless spring steel. Blue Blade Steel features precision hardness consistency from coil to coil to provide the spring manufacturer with quality steel that contains no soft spots. There are simply no adjustments needed to be made between coils, and there are no secondary setups needed to sort parts that are out of tolerance since all the steel is manufactured to a consistent, uniform specification," notes Blue Blade Steel President, Jerry Shaw.

With no soft spots in the coil, Blue Blade Steel eliminates a primary cause of spring failure. In addition, production downtime that was previously required to trim away substandard material and to replace the coil-to-coil setup is eliminated. With no soft spots to cut away from the continuous coil, material utilization is maximized and there is a significant cost saving associated with reduced waste.

A wide choice of engineered tempering solutions, finishing options, and value added services permits the spring manufacturer to order custom-enhanced material structures and delivery setups to meet production needs.

Blue Blade Steel spring steel is packaged in either traditional flat ribbon coils up to 60" O.D. or in compact, production-efficient, oscillating coil spools up to 2,000 lbs. that offer longer uninterrupted production runs.
