TM-2011 CR-900-1180-DP-S Dual Phase — Cold Rolled Steel

TM-2011 CR-900-1180-DP-S is a dual phase grade cold rolled steel conforming to the tesla material specifications. At 900 MPa minimum yield strength, this is hot-stamped-equivalent steel for critical occupant protection zones and maximum intrusion resistance, with extreme tensile strength for maximum occupant protection performance in the most severe crash scenarios.

TM-2011 CR-900-1180-DP-S is classified as a Dual Phase steel at 900 MPa yield and 1180 MPa tensile. With 900 MPa yield and 1180 MPa tensile, TM-2011 CR-900-1180-DP-S targets high-energy crash structures where controlled deformation and energy absorption are critical design parameters.

Ameristeel stocks TM-2011 CR-900-1180-DP-S in production-ready gauges and widths suited to high-strength stamping applications. As a 900 MPa yield cold rolled product, this specification is available in coil, sheet, and precision-blanked formats. Our ISO 9001:2015 certified facility triple-tests every coil (ID, OD, and center) to verify mechanical properties remain consistent throughout the entire length.

TM-2011 CR-900-1180-DP-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 900 MPa yield, the coating selection for TM-2011 CR-900-1180-DP-S should account for forming severity and post-stamping corrosion exposure in the final application.

TM-2011 CR-900-1180-DP-S at 900 MPa yield and 1180 MPa tensile compares to TM-2011 HR-900-1180-MS-S (0 MPa lower yield at 900 MPa and 1180 MPa vs 1180 MPa tensile) and TM-2011 CR-850-1180-TR-S (50 MPa higher yield at 850 MPa and 1180 MPa vs 1180 MPa tensile). Selecting the right grade depends on the balance between strength requirements and forming complexity for your specific stamping application.
