Tandem-cold-rolled stainless steel, made by carbon steel-manufacturing facilities, has corrosion
resistance, heat resistance, workability, and other essential properties of stainless steel.
Therefore, this stainless steel, though slightly different in metallic luster from general cold-rolledstainless steel, makes cost reduction possible according to use.
Aresa of application are spreading widely into automotive exhaust systems, reefer container
