Thickness Tolerance (mm)
Several different grades of thickness allowance― A(standard) and S, SS, and SSS(special)― are available. The thickness is
measured arbitrarily at more than 10 mm from the edge of the steel. When the width is 20 mm or less, the steel is measured in the center portion.

finire
Aside from ordinary annealing and hard-drawn finishes, Volda also implements PPC, PT, and other
finishes aimed at speeding up hardening and conserving heat. Cold-rolled steel strips are available in the following finishes.
| Stage | Symbol | Condition |
| Annealing | A | Annealing is implemented after cold rolling |
| Skinpass | S | Annealing and thermal refining are implemented after cold rolling |
| Deep drawing | C | Cold rolling is implemented |
| Patenting | PT | Patenting treatment and fixed cold rolling are implemented |
| PPC | PC | Spheroidal carbide is refined |
