Questions & Answers
As I see, this is an ongoing project. When unrolled, it should be able to spring back back to its original shape, but I'd like to ask before I purchase one. ?
There is almost no "memory" of the flat shape, i.e., so it resumes the previous shape. Since it is shipped in a tube, there is almost no visible bend after it is removed from the roll. In addition, you should be careful when releasing the tension on the coil at first to avoid injury.
Selected User Reviews For 1095 Steel Shim Stock, Blue Temper, MIL-S-7947, 0.008" Thick, 6" Width, 50" Length
This is a spring steel you cannot buy at any This is the best material to use when making leaf springs and hardened shimmings! To finish the rough edges, I used a belt sander and a Dremel abrasive wheel
5/5
I scored the surface, snapped it to break and used a belt sander to finish it. The use of a hand punch can be useful in punching holes. We were able to make parts of a drill bit sharpener that was no longer supported by Darex (the manufacturer).
