1. KSI is how we refer to steel hardness and
tensile strength. We have 3 categories of
steel hardness at Venest and they are Soft,
Medium and Hard. KSI will determine how
much you have to adjust your straightener
settings. KSI will soon be part of the setup
sheets.
Soft = 15 – 30 KSI
Medium = 30 – 50 KSI
Hard = 50 – 80 KSI
KSI is an
acronym for
kilopound-force
per square/inch
KSI represents
how much
strength the
steel can
withstand during
forming before
breaking
