When the stock AI were built, the game's armors were twice as strong as they are now. Deciding against the extreme armor strength, they decided to cut the strength of all armor in half but failed to update the AI bots accordingly.

In short: It's a by-product of a half-assed attempt at making a game.

Emergancy and Catfish have it.

Here is the master list of AI bots that have Steel for armor. So if you recycle the chassis, you end up with DSS.
Alarm
Big Dog
Bushido
Deadbeat
Devil
Emergency
Eye Poker
Grog the Warrior
Hanky Panky
Little Metal Friend
Lugnut
M.A.D.
Revenge
Raptor
Razor
Sabertooth
Sentinel
SnowJob
Stinger
The Boxer
and Forkie (the only bonus bot that has Steel armor)

Emergency doesn't have DSS as of the 1.2 patch. Just regular steel. They put slot decals on the front in order to make it realistic (as if the flippers don't already pass through the ram plates) and apparently they reset the armor in the process.
