ABSTRACT:
A metal sheet which is intended to be subjected to a drawing operation for the fabrication of a shaped metal part has on its surface a roughness in the form of plateau portions in relief defining between them recessed valley portions, the average ratio of the dimension of the valley portions to the dimension of the plateau portions in any direction on the surface of the sheet being from 1:1 to 3:1, preferably 3:2 to 5:2, the average dimension of the plateau portions being from 40 to 200 micrometers, preferably 60 to 120 micrometers and the height of the plateau portions being more than 6 micrometers, preferably 10 to 25 micrometers. This surface roughness reduces the risk of seizing during drawing even if the sheet is coated with a soft metal such as tin. The sheet may be prepared by subjecting a metal sheet to pressure from at least one cold roller the surface of which has been treated, as by shot blasting, to provide the surface of the roller with similar roughness characteristics to those just defined but of which the height of the plateau portions is more than 7 micrometers, preferably 11 to 50 micrometers.
