Cold Rolled 1.4062 Stainless Steel
Cold rolled EN 1.4062 is EN 1.4062 stainless steel in the cold worked (strain hardened) condition. The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare cold rolled EN 1.4062 to: wrought duplex stainless steels (top), all iron alloys (middle), and the entire database (bottom). A full bar means this is the highest value in the relevant set. A half-full bar means it's 50% of the highest, and so on.
