Material condition for a product which is stress relieved. NOTE Products in the M, R. or H. material condition may be specially processed (i.e. mechanically or thermally stress relieved) in order to lower the residual stress level to improve the resistance to stress corrosion and the dimensional stability on machining [see 5 k), 5 l) and 8.4]. Exact conversion between material conditions designated R. and H. is not possible. Except when the suffix S is used, material condition is designated by only one of the above designations. 4.3 Product The product designation provides a standardized pattern of designation from which a rapid and unequivocal description of a product is conveyed in communication. It provides mutual comprehension at the international level with regard to products which meet the requirements of the relevant European Standard. The product designation is no substitute for the full content of the standard. The product designation for products to this standard shall consist of:  denomination (Rod);  number of this European Standard (EN 12163);  material designation, either symbol or number (see Tables 1 to 7); SIST EN 12163:2011

A test sample, depending on the analytical technique to be employed, shall be prepared from each sampling unit and used for the determination of the composition. NOTE 1 When preparing the test sample, care should be taken to avoid contaminating or overheating the test sample. Carbide tipped tools are recommended; steel tools, if used, should be made of magnetic material to assist in the sub-sequent removal of extraneous iron. If the test samples are in finely divided form (e.g. drillings, millings), they should be treated carefull
