Overview
EN 10263-5:2017 - "Steel rod, bars and wire for cold heading and cold extrusion - Part 5: Technical delivery conditions for stainless steels" (CEN) specifies the technical delivery requirements for round rod, bars and wire of stainless steels intended for cold heading and cold extrusion. The standard covers product forms up to defined diameter limits (25 mm for ferritic and austenitic‑ferritic, 50 mm for austenitic, 100 mm for martensitic) and complements EN 10263‑1, which is indispensable for application.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope & classification: Applies to ferritic, austenitic, austenitic‑ferritic (duplex) and martensitic stainless steels produced for cold forming operations.
- Delivery conditions and product forms: Defines common delivery conditions and symbols (e.g. soft annealed +A, solution annealed +AT, cold drawn +C, peeled +PE, skin passed +LC) and which apply to bars, rods and wire.
- Chemical composition: Specifies cast analysis limits and permissible deviations for product analysis; includes typical stainless grades (examples: X2CrNi18‑9, X5CrNi18‑10, X6Cr17, X12Cr13) with associated element ranges.
- Mechanical properties: Requires tensile testing in specified delivery conditions; mechanical property tables give strength and elongation requirements (refer to the standard for exact values per grade and diameter).
- Surface quality: Rods are normally supplied pickled; provisions cover mechanical descaling, peeling/shaving and acceptance of minor surface imperfections from normal manufacture.
- Cold forming aptitude: Optional upsetting test procedure is defined (test piece length = 1.5 × diameter, reduced to 1/3 of initial length at ambient temperature; applicable up to 15 mm diameter) with assessment criteria to be agreed at order stage.
- Surface discontinuities: Limits for maximum admissible depth are defined; measurement by metallography (×100) is specified in case of dispute.
- Supplementary requirements & testing: Tables and annexes list additional requirements, sampling and testing rules.
Applications and users
EN 10263‑5 is used to:
- Specify material procurement for manufacturers of fasteners, cold‑headed components, and extruded cold‑formed parts.
- Guide quality engineers, metallurgists and testing laboratories in acceptance criteria for stainless steel rod, bars and wire.
- Support automotive, aerospace, electronics, and general engineering sectors where high reproducibility of cold heading/extrusion feedstock is required.
Typical users: steel mills, bar and wire producers, cold‑forming manufacturers, purchasing/specification engineers, and product designers.
