Ford WSS Specifications

Ford Motor Company World Specification Standards (WSS-MIA) define automotive-grade steel for vehicle body and structural applications. Ameristeel supplies Ford WSS steel grades spanning commercial quality through ultra-high-strength dual-phase (AHSS) tiers, in cold rolled and hot rolled forms with galvanized, galvanneal, and electrogalvanized coating options. These standards cover drawing-quality panels, bake-hardenable outer body steels, HSLA structural members, interstitial-free formability grades, and advanced high-strength crash components. Available in coils, sheets, and precision-cut blanks from our Fraser, MI service center, with slitting and cut-to-length processing for prototype quantities and full production runs.

About WSS-MIA367-A48

WSS-MIA367-A48 is a hsla grade 60 grade hot rolled steel conforming to the ford wss specifications.

WSS-MIA367-A48 covers hot-rolled HSLA steel at approximately 415 MPa minimum yield with tighter thickness tolerance bands than standard mill practice, designed for chassis frame rail webs and engine cradle mounting flanges requiring precise gauge control for consistent weld quality in robotic assembly.

Ameristeel stocks WSS-MIA367-A48 in a range of thicknesses and widths for structural and forming applications. As a hot rolled product, this specification is supplied in coils, cut sheets, or blanked parts. Our dedicated purchasing team sources WSS-MIA367-A48 through direct mill relationships, and every incoming coil is third-party tested under our ISO 9001:2015 quality management system.

WSS-MIA367-A48 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 WSS-MIA367-A48 depends on your forming process, paint system, and end-use corrosion environment.

WSS-MIA367-A48 is listed alongside WSS-MIA367-A47 and WSS-MIA367-A49 within this specification family. As a hsla grade 60 designation, WSS-MIA367-A48 addresses specific hot rolled forming requirements that distinguish it from adjacent grades in ductility, surface quality, and mechanical property control.

WSS-MIA367-A48 is an OEM-specific grade developed to meet Ford engineering requirements for vehicle body and structural applications. Ameristeel supplies Ford-specified steel grades directly to Tier 1 and Tier 2 automotive suppliers throughout Southeast Michigan, with full material traceability and third-party test reports on every coil. Our Fraser, MI steel processing facility maintains dedicated inventory of WSS-MIA367-A48 to support just-in-time delivery schedules, and our ISO 9001:2015 quality system ensures that every shipment meets the exact mechanical property, surface quality, and dimensional tolerances required by Ford production standards.

Ameristeel offers in-house processing for WSS-MIA367-A48 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, shear processing for rapid sheet production. 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.
