AISI Standards

American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) standards define steel grades by carbon content and alloying elements. Ameristeel stocks and supplies AISI-classified flat-rolled steel in both cold rolled and hot rolled forms, with galvanized, galvanneal, and electrogalvanized coating options available from our Fraser, MI service center. AISI grades are among the most widely recognized steel specifications in North American manufacturing, covering low-carbon drawing steels through high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) structural grades used in automotive body structures, chassis components, and industrial equipment. We carry these materials in coils, sheets, and cut-to-length blanks, with slitting and blanking processing available for both prototype and production volumes.

About AISI 050XK CR

AISI 050XK CR is a hsla 50 grade cold rolled steel conforming to the aisi standards.

Ameristeel maintains a deep inventory of AISI 050XK CR in standard and custom gauges, available as coils, slit coils, sheets, or precision blanks. As a cold rolled product, AISI 050XK CR offers the tight thickness tolerances and controlled surface finish critical for visible and semi-exposed automotive applications. Every coil is third-party tested under our ISO 9001:2015 quality system.

AISI 050XK CR is supplied with the following coating options: hot-dip galvanized (zinc) for general corrosion resistance; galvanneal (zinc-iron alloy) for superior paint adhesion and weldability; electrogalvanized for precise coating weight control and smooth surface finish. The right coating choice for AISI 050XK CR depends on your forming process, paint system, and end-use corrosion environment.

AISI 050XK CR is listed alongside AISI 050XK HR and AISI 050XF CR within this specification family. As a hsla 50 designation, AISI 050XK CR addresses specific cold rolled forming requirements that distinguish it from adjacent grades in ductility, surface quality, and mechanical property control.

AISI 050XK CR is widely used across structural construction, heavy equipment manufacturing, pressure vessel fabrication, bridge and infrastructure components, and automotive chassis applications. Ameristeel sources and stocks this grade at our Fraser, MI steel processing center, with the ability to supply production quantities, prototype runs, and custom-processed orders. Whether you need full coils, slit-to-width coils, cut-to-length sheets, or precision blanks, our team can fulfill orders to AISI 050XK CR specifications with complete mill test reports and material certification.

Ameristeel offers in-house processing for AISI 050XK CR at our Warren and Fraser, Michigan facilities. Available processing capabilities include precision slitting to custom widths on our multi-cut blanking line, cut-to-length sheet processing for exact dimensional requirements, laser cutting of high-strength profiles on our TRUMPF fiber laser with up to 4kW power, press brake forming on our TruBend series with up to 110-ton capacity and 120" bend length. From raw material sourcing through finished part delivery, Ameristeel provides a single-source solution — eliminating the need to coordinate between separate steel suppliers, service centers, and fabrication shops.
