Product Spotlights
Hemaokang Steel (Shandong) Co., Ltd., established in 2025, is a professional steel supplier committed to providing high-quality flat products for global industries. We are proud to offer this SAE1008/1010 low carbon steel coil — a hot rolled pickled and oiled (HRPO) product with a thickness range of 1.2-4.0mm and hardness between 28-35 HRB. This coil is manufactured to meet diverse manufacturing requirements, balancing strength, formability, and surface cleanliness. With an annual export value of US$50 million to US$100 million, we have built a solid reputation for reliability and customer-centric service.
This low carbon steel coil is ideal for applications that require excellent ductility, weldability, and consistent mechanical properties. The pickled and oiled surface removes mill scale, ensuring a clean finish that is ready for forming, stamping, and welding. Each coil weighs 15-20 metric tons, which improves material utilization and reduces downtime during production. Whether you are producing automobile components, electrical enclosures, pipes, or general stampings, this coil delivers dependability in every supply chain.

Material Composition and Properties
- Carbon content is typically controlled below 0.13% for SAE1010 and below 0.10% for SAE1008, ensuring excellent ductility.
- Manganese and other alloying elements are kept within standard ranges to balance strength and formability.
- The hot rolling process produces a coarse grain structure that is refined through controlled cooling and coiling, providing consistent hardness across the strip.
- The material meets the requirements of SAE J403 specifications for low carbon steel sheets and strips.
Performance and Benefits
- Excellent surface quality: pickling removes mill scale, and the oil layer protects the steel from oxidation during transit and storage.
- Superior formability: low carbon content promotes high ductility, making the coil suitable for deep drawing and severe forming operations.
- Cost efficiency: the pre-treated surface eliminates the need for additional pickling before use, saving time and cost.
- Uniform mechanical properties: optimized hot rolling and coiling minimize strength variations across the strip width and length.
- Logistics advantage: heavy coil weights reduce handling operations, loading time, and freight costs per ton.
- Wide compatibility: this steel grade works with conventional welding, brazing, and resistance welding methods.
Quality Assurance
All coils are produced under strict process controls in our Liaocheng facility. Our quality management system is certified to ISO9001, ensuring traceability and consistency from raw material to final shipment. Each coil is inspected for gauge, hardness, surface condition, and weight before release. Mill test certificates are available for every delivery, and additional inspection reports can be arranged upon request.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between SAE1008 and SAE1010? Both are low carbon steel grades. SAE1010 has a slightly higher carbon content, which gives it marginally greater strength while retaining good formability. SAE1008 offers maximum ductility for deep drawing and severe forming operations. Your choice depends on the required strength and forming limits of the final component.
- What does pickled and oiled mean? Pickling uses acid to remove mill scale from the hot rolled surface, and a protective oil film is then applied. The result is a clean, smooth surface that resists rust and is ready for immediate forming or welding. This is particularly beneficial for end users who want to skip an extra surface preparation step.
- Can the coil dimensions be customized? Yes, thickness, width, and coil weight can be customized within production capabilities. We work with our clients to define optimal specifications for their applications. Width and inner diameter options are available upon request.
- What is the standard delivery time? For standard sizes and stock items, delivery typically takes 2 to 3 weeks after confirmation. Production-based orders may require 3 to 4 weeks depending on quantity. We strive to meet tight schedules through efficient planning and logistics from Qingdao Port.
- Do you provide mill test certificates? Yes, each shipment includes a mill test certificate that verifies chemical composition and mechanical properties. Additional third-party inspection reports can be arranged at your request to meet specific quality assurance needs.
- How are the coils packaged for export? Coils are protected with moisture-proof wrapping, edge protectors, and steel strapping. The packaging is designed for safe ocean transport and can be customized for different port handling requirements.
- Which markets and regions do you serve? We export to North America, South America, Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia, Africa, Oceania, the Middle East, Western Europe, and many other regions. Our export management team ensures smooth customs documentation and delivery to your designated port.
- Is this steel suitable for welding? Yes, the low carbon content offers excellent weldability using conventional methods such as MIG, TIG, and resistance welding. The pickled and oiled surface also helps to avoid weld contamination when cleaned properly.
