AHMSA´s cold rolled products comply with the
highest international quality standards. Cold
rolled steel, tinplate and tin-free steel
production processes are certified under
ISO 9002 standard. In order to satisfy the
requirements of the automotive industry,
AHMSA´s Cold-rolling mill Nº 2 received the
QS 9000 standard certification and VDA 6.1
certification for the German automotive market.
AHMSA´s Cold-rolled facilities are also certified

Also known as chromed steel, tin-free
steel (TFS) is obtained by coating the
metal base (low-carbon steel) with an
ultra-thin layer of metallic chrome and
then with a chromium oxide layer.
The product complies with ASTM A-657
Specification and is manufactured with
low current density (TFS-III) and is
supplied only in coils of up to 12 metric
tons.

Tinplate is a light gauge, low carbon, cold
reduced steel on which tin is applied on
both sides by electrolytic tinning. Since the
tin firmly adheres to the base metal, the
product may be press molded, stamped,
drawn or bent and shaped into complex
forms without the tin coating peeling off.
This product fully complies with ASTM
A-624 Specifications and is supplied in
coils of up to 12 tonnes or cut in sheets
meeting the following guidelines:

Also known as chromed steel, tin-free
steel (TFS) is obtained by coating the
metal base (low-carbon steel) with an
ultra-thin layer of metallic chrome and
then with a chromium oxide layer.
The product complies with ASTM A-657
Specification and is manufactured with
low current density (TFS-III) and is
supplied only in coils of up to 12 metric
tons.
