Spring Steel Sheet Dimensions?

I want to make a spring steel sheet, since am not getting one from Prusa because i have not bought their printer kit (only magnetic bed and Einsy), and i have a spare PEI sticker laying around. And i'm working in the metal industry, what a coincidence.

What are the specs for the spring steel sheet? I'm measuring 254 x 240 mm from the bed.

Type of the Metal Prusa uses is difficult to get info on, and what thickness it has i can't measure from pictures.
I'll use our own flexible metal sheets, with thickness of 1mm.

Would be nice if there's dimensional drawing of the sheet, since it's open source and all 😉
