Compared to normal Mild Steel, bright Mild Steel provides tighter sectional tolerances, increased straightness, and a much cleaner surface. The main advantage of cold drawn Steel is that Steel can be brought closer to the finished machine size, providing reduce machining costs.Bright mild steel is mostly used in engineering. Whilst it's stronger and harder than other types of steel, it can be susceptible to internal stress, so it's typically used in low-stress applications.
