01 · Product 

 Cold-Rolled Non-Grain-Oriented electrical steel (CRNGO steel) is the workhorse soft-magnetic core material of the global electric-machinery industry.

Supplied in nominal thicknesses of 0.35 mm, 0.50 mm, and 0.65 mm, our Standard CRNGO covers the complete A-series grade ladder. This range spans from ultra-low-loss premium grades optimized for high-efficiency EV traction motors and IE4/IE5 industrial motors, through to high-induction economy grades ideal for small transformers, ballasts, welding equipment, and voltage stabilizers.

Every coil is supplied with an insulating surface coating pre-applied at the mill, making it ready for downstream stamping, slitting, and lamination stacking. Because its magnetic properties are isotropic—meaning core loss and permeability are uniform in all rolling directions—CRNGO is the natural choice for rotating machinery, where magnetic flux travels through the lamination in multiple directions.

For procurement and engineering teams already specifying to a familiar mill designation, we provide direct cross-references to all major global producers, including: Baosteel, Nippon Steel (NSC), JFE Steel, ThyssenKrupp (TKS), POSCO, NI & SCo, and AK Steel.

Technical Data

A‑series Naming Convention

In the A-series naming convention, performance is encoded directly within the grade designation itself. The numeric portion represents the maximum guaranteed core loss in W/kg × 100, tested at a magnetic induction of 1.5 T and a frequency of 50 Hz.

  • B50A470: Max guaranteed core loss ≤ 4.70 W/kg @ 1.5 T, 50 Hz.
  • B35A250: Max guaranteed core loss ≤ 2.50 W/kg @ 1.5 T, 50 Hz.
  • B65A800: Max guaranteed core loss ≤ 8.00 W/kg @ 1.5 T, 50 Hz.

Technical Grade Selection Logic

Lower core-loss grades use higher silicon content (typically 2.5 – 3.5% Si), generating significantly less heat under AC magnetization, though they deliver slightly lower magnetic induction (B50). Conversely, higher-loss / higher-induction grades use lower silicon content (typically 0.5 – 1.5% Si) and are preferred where lamination space is plentiful and material budget outweighs absolute efficiency.

05 · Lamination Selection: Three Key Engineering Variables

1.Operating Frequency: Higher operating frequencies demand thinner sheets and lower-loss grades. At 50/60 Hz mains frequency, all three thicknesses are viable. When dealing with 400 Hz aviation systems, high PWM motor harmonics, or high-speed spindles, 0.35 mm sheets become mandatory.

2.Efficiency Target: IE4 / IE5 super-premium motors and EV traction units strictly require low-loss grades (A210 – A400). Standard industrial duty (IE2 / IE3) typically utilizes A470 – A800. Cost-sensitive ballasts, welders, and stabilizers widely implement A800 – A1300.

3.Working Flux Density: High-induction designs that require compact lamination cross-sections necessitate a high B50 value, which favors higher-numbered grades. Designs with generous iron areas can safely use low-loss grades at moderate flux densities.
