DC05ED Sheet Steel — Specifications, Applications, Properties
General Technical Characteristics
DC05ED is a premium low-carbon cold-rolled steel grade developed for deep and extra-deep drawing processes, with the ability to be directly enamelled. The ED (Enamelled Drawing) designation indicates its compatibility with enamel coatings. It complies with EN 10209, the European standard for cold rolled low carbon steel flat products intended for enameling.
Supplied in sheets or coils with thicknesses from 0.5 mm to 2 mm, DC05ED offers exceptional formability, high surface quality, and consistent dimensional stability. It is ideal for applications requiring flawless surfaces and minimal internal stress.
Applications of DC05ED Steel
Due to its outstanding plasticity and structural purity, DC05ED sheet steel is widely used in industries where high deformation and smooth surface finishing are critical. Main applications include:
- manufacturing of enameled cookware and kitchenware
- production of gas and electric stove components
- water heater and boiler casings
- white goods and household appliances
- enameled tanks and vessels
- deep-drawn industrial parts

Key Features and Benefits
- ✅ Excellent for direct enameling — strong adhesion and enamel integrity
- ✅ Superior formability — suitable for complex deep-drawing operations
- ✅ Stable dimensions with minimal residual stress
- ✅ Fully weldable by MIG/MAG, spot, laser welding
- ✅ High surface purity — free from inclusions or internal defects
The high-quality metal structure ensures low rejection rates during enameling and forming processes.
Chemical Composition (according to EN 10209)
| Element | Max. Content (%) |
|---|---|
| Carbon (C) | 0.05 |
| Manganese (Mn) | 0.40 |
| Silicon (Si) | 0.03 |
| Sulfur (S) | 0.02 |
| Phosphorus (P) | 0.020 |
| Aluminum (Al) | ≥0.020 (residual) |
This optimized composition ensures softness, clean surfaces, and excellent thermal behavior during enameling.
Mechanical Properties
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Yield Strength (Rp0.2), MPa | ≤ 150 |
| Tensile Strength (Rm), MPa | 270–340 |
| Elongation, % | ≥ 40 |
| Brinell Hardness | ≤ 65 HB |
These properties make DC05ED steel perfect for high-precision parts where complex shaping and perfect coating are required.
