Scope This Japanese Industrial Standard specifies the cold rolled special steel strip(hereafter referred to as "steel strip"). This Standard also applies to cut pieces of steel strip.
Normative references The standards given in attached table1 contain provisions which, through reference in this Standard, constitute provisions of this Standard. The most recent editions of the standards (including amendments) shall be applied.
Type symbols The steel strip shall be classified into 38 kinds and the type symbols shall be as given in table1.
Manufacturing method For the manufacturing method of steel strip, carry out cold rolling after hot rolling and allow it to be as cold rolled, or annealed after cold rolling.
