Technical Profile

Aero Enterprises supplies secondary CR sheets (second quality cold rolled sheets) in Mumbai at 15-20% discount versus prime material.

What are Secondary CR Sheets?

Secondary CR sheets (also called second quality, off-grade, or commercial seconds) are cold rolled steel sheets that don't meet prime quality visual standards due to minor cosmetic defects from manufacturing or handling. Common imperfections include: surface scratches (light to moderate), edge nicks or irregularities, small dents or marks, slight oil staining, minor dimensional variations (±1-2mm), or packaging damage. Critically, secondary CR sheets retain the same smooth rolled surface, formability, and mechanical properties as prime material - they simply fail cosmetic inspection for visible applications. The base metal quality, thickness uniformity, and deep drawing characteristics remain intact. For applications where the sheet will be painted, used internally, or where minor surface marks are acceptable, secondary CR sheets offer identical performance at 15-20% cost savings.

Technical Q&A

Verified Procurement Intelligence

What's wrong with secondary CR sheets?
Secondary CR sheets have minor cosmetic imperfections like surface scratches, edge nicks, or small marks. The smooth cold-rolled surface, formability, and mechanical properties are identical to prime material. Defects are visual only and easily corrected with light sanding if needed.
How much can I save with secondary CR sheets?
Secondary CR sheets cost 15-20% less than prime. Example: 1.2mm prime = ₹1,830/sheet, secondary = ₹1,490/sheet (saving ₹340 per sheet). For a furniture manufacturer using 500 sheets/month, that's ₹170,000 monthly savings - ₹2 million annually.
Can secondary CR sheets be formed and bent?
Yes, secondary CR sheets have the same formability as prime material. CQ grade for simple bending, DQ for moderate forming. The scratches or marks don't affect bending characteristics or cause cracking during forming operations.
Are secondary CR sheets good for painting?
Excellent for painting! The smooth CR base provides good paint adhesion. Light sanding removes surface scratches, and after painting, you can't tell the difference from prime material. Many painted furniture and automotive parts use secondary CR to save costs.
Can I see the material before purchasing?
Yes, we encourage inspection at our Vasai facility. For bulk orders (50+ sheets), we provide detailed photos via WhatsApp showing actual surface condition. We're transparent about defect severity - no surprises on delivery.
What thicknesses are typically available?
Common stock: 0.8mm, 1.0mm, 1.2mm, 1.5mm, 2.0mm. Thicker gauges (2.5-3.0mm) occasionally available. Stock fluctuates based on mill supply - contact us for current availability with thickness-specific pricing and condition photos.
Will scratches show through paint?
Superficial scratches disappear under paint. Deeper scratches may require light sanding before painting. We grade material as 'light scratches' (minimal prep needed) or 'moderate scratches' (sanding recommended) so you know what preparation is required.
Do you deliver secondary CR sheets in Navi Mumbai?
Yes, delivery across Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Thane. Minimum 5 sheets for delivery to make transport economical. For first-time buyers, we recommend small test order (2-3 sheets) to verify quality meets your requirements before bulk purchase.
What if scratches are worse than described?
We accept returns if material condition is misrepresented. We provide condition grading (light/moderate/heavy imperfections) and photos for bulk orders. Material sold as-is for disclosed condition, but we're honest about defects to avoid disputes.
Can secondary CR be used for deep drawing?
For moderate drawing operations - yes, if we have DQ grade in stock. For complex deep drawing (automotive body panels, appliance tubs), we recommend prime DDQ grade as dimensional consistency is critical. Contact us to discuss your specific forming requirements.
