Disclosed herein is a method in which a steel component can be produced, by forming of a flat steel product in a forming machine, such that a flat steel product is provided. A tribologically active layer is produced on at least one of the surfaces of the flat steel product or of the forming machine used for forming the steel product that come into mutual contact in the course of forming, by coating with a coating material selected from the group consisting of aluminum sulfate, ammonium sulfate, iron sulfate, and magnesium sulfate. The flat steel product is inserted into the forming tool, and the flat steel product inserted into the forming machine is formed, to produce the steel component. |
