About TM-2011 CR-420-590-CMn-S
TM-2011 CR-420-590-CMn-S is a carbon manganese grade cold rolled steel conforming to the tesla material specifications. At 420 MPa minimum yield strength, this is high-strength steel for front-end structure components, rocker inners, and A-pillar reinforcements, with substantial tensile reserve for energy-absorbing crush zones and progressive deformation members.
Ameristeel carries TM-2011 CR-420-590-CMn-S across a range of gauges and widths in cold rolled form, available as coils, sheets, or custom-cut blanks. With 420 MPa minimum yield strength, this carbon manganese specification requires precise handling and testing — our ISO 9001:2015 certified processes include third-party laboratory verification on every incoming coil.
TM-2011 CR-420-590-CMn-S 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. At 420 MPa yield, the coating selection for TM-2011 CR-420-590-CMn-S should account for forming severity and post-stamping corrosion exposure in the final application.
TM-2011 CR-420-590-CMn-S at 420 MPa yield and 590 MPa tensile compares to TM-2011 CR-420-480-LA-S (0 MPa lower yield at 420 MPa and 590 MPa vs 480 MPa tensile) and TM-2011 HR-420-480-LA-S (0 MPa lower yield at 420 MPa and 590 MPa vs 480 MPa tensile). Selecting the right grade depends on the balance between strength requirements and forming complexity for your specific stamping application.
TM-2011 CR-420-590-CMn-S is an OEM-specific grade developed to meet Tesla engineering requirements for vehicle body and structural applications. Ameristeel supplies Tesla-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. As an EV-platform specification, TM-2011 CR-420-590-CMn-S addresses the unique structural and lightweight demands of battery electric vehicle architecture, including battery enclosure protection and optimized crash energy management. Our Fraser, MI steel processing facility maintains dedicated inventory of TM-2011 CR-420-590-CMn-S 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 Tesla production standards.
Ameristeel offers in-house processing for TM-2011 CR-420-590-CMn-S 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 for complex profiles and prototypes on our TRUMPF fiber laser systems, press brake forming on our TruBend series with up to 110-ton capacity and 120" bend length.
