strip steel demand will rise in the Kolkata market

Prakash Leave a comment

The upcoming 1 lakh car project of the Tatas is a great lure for the market of steel strip in Eastern India, specially Kolkata.

A lot of ancialliaries would come up locally, since the car manufacturer would have to keep in mind procurement of parts at the cheapest possible rates. Thus setting up new anciallaries locally would help in reducing costs as regards transportation and keeping lower stock levels.

This will give a graeat boost to the Kolkata market. In my opinion the demand for Spring Steel Strip and Carbon  Steel strip may increase 300% after the commencement of production of the plant.

Furthur this prestigious project  of Tata, may attract a number of other  similar investments in this region. Looking to the future scenario, I expect that the eastern region will observe huge investments coming in from auto components manufacturers. So far as my study is concerned, I have also learnt that The Tatas will keep a special zone for auto ancilliaries in the said project. 

Hardened tempered steel strip

Prakash Leave a comment

Hardened Tempered Steel strips are available in varying range of hardness, right from 28-30 HRC Rockwell on the lower side to 58-60HRC Rockwell on the higher side.

These tailor made strips are manufactured out of specific requirements of customers. The basic raw material usually used is C-80 for hardness upto 52 HRC and C-98 for high hardness, i.e. above 53 HRC.

This flexibility helps the end user un-necessary trouble of piece mill wise hardening. For example, in case of MRTC Knives, the end user has to take a piece of steel 1.00mm thick, then it has to be  hardened and ground to .80mm. Thus it covers cost of unnecessary hardening, grinding of .20mm, increased labour cost, power and weight loss. Whereas, when the consumer can get material in Strip Form in .80 mm thickness, in  58-60 HRC hardness, then he can manufacture the material much cheaper, saving the extra cost of hardening,grinding,etc.

We are a specialist in providing these types of hardened tempered strips, which are manufactured keeping in mind the exact requirement of the customer so that he can make end products in a more easier process saving a lot in production cost.

Cold Rolled Closely Annealed Strips(CRCA Strips)

The market of CRCA Steel Strips, in India is having a robust growth. New integrated steel plants are coming up in the next 3-4 years to cope this demand.India,s steel production is expected to jump at 100 million tonnes in the next 10 years or so.

After China, with an annual production of 300 million tonnes per annum, India is expected to become the next hub for steel.

To meet this huge demand, we must have sufficient reserves for iron-ore. I feel that India should put a curb on the export of iron-ore.

Indian manufacturers are producing quality CRCA Steel Strips. That is why the import of wider CRCA Strips, in India has more or less stopped. Now CRCA Strips are available upto a width of 1800mm in India.

Analysts are expecting a constant growth in demand of steel at 10% in India for the next 10-15 years.

.05mm Rolling Hard Steel Strip.

Prakash Leave a comment

We at Bijoy Trading Company are constantly in the watch for new products, technologies and innovations. We have now set up a rolling mill where we can go down upto .05mm thick material in Rolling Hard Condition.

This is a break through and  still we are always open to new ideas and products. We take every new product as a challange and always look forward to new horizons.

Now with this success we are now trying for fully annealed material ,i.e. CRCA material in .05mm thickness. The annealing and handling of material at this thickness is very difficult.

ROLLING HARD SPRING STEEL STRIP

Prakash Leave a comment

The rolling,annealing & finally heat treatment of Carbon Steel Strip or Spring Steel Strip is a matter of great expertise. The desired Physical Properties can never be aechieved if proper spherodization is not done. To judge the right soaking time & temperature to aechieve a desired effect is a matter of great skill.

Furthur ROLLING HARD SPRING STEEL STRIPS are more difficult to be controlled. One has to be very particular in selecting the right thickness from which the material has to be rolled down to the required thickness  to get the desired results as regards hardness,fatigue strength,etc. These strips are tailor made as per the buyer’s specific requirments and we proudly offer a huge range of .05mm to 4mm.

SURFACE TECHNOLOGY PRODUCT FROM SANDVIK

Prakash Leave a comment

Sandvik surface technology represents a new product area for coated products in strip.Developed by Sandvik Materials Technology, these products can be given new and unique properties.

Potential applications for Sandvik surface technology strip products are those with high performance demands on materials, where properties such as corrosion resistance,electrical conductivity,wear resistance and hardness are important.For example, components used in electronic applications may require enhanced surface conductivity.

This is a completely new era in the field of spring steel strip.
