Steel wire for mechanical springs - Part 2: Oil hardened and tempered spring steel wire
1.1 This Part of EN 10270 applies to oil hardened and tempered spring steel wire made from unalloyed or alloyed steels. They are primarily subject to torsional stresses such as in compression and extension springs and in special cases also for applications where the spring wire is subject to bending stresses such as lever springs.
As a rule unalloyed steels are used for applications at room temperature whereas alloyed steels are generally used at a temperature above room temperature. Alloyed steels may also be chosen for above average tensile strengths.
1.2 In addition to this part of EN 10270 the general technical delivery requirements of EN 10021 are applicable.
Stahldraht für Federn - Teil 2: Ölschlußvergüteter Federstahldraht
Anwendungsbereich
1.1 Dieser Teil von EN 10270 gilt für ölschlussvergüteten Federstahldraht aus unlegierten oder legierten Stählen.
Sie werden vorwiegend auf Torsion beansprucht wie bei Druck- und Zugfedern und in Sonderfällen auch für
Anwendungen, bei denen der Federdraht auf Biegung beansprucht wird wie z. B. bei Schenkelfedern.
In der Regel werden unlegierte Stähle bei Raumtemperatur eingesetzt, während legierte Stähle im allgemeinen
bei Temperaturen oberhalb Raumtemperatur verwendet werden. Legierte Stähle können auch wegen über-durchschnittlicher
Zugfestigkeit ausgewählt werden.
1.2 Zusätzlich zu diesem Teil der EN 10270 gelten die allgemeinen technischen Lieferbedingungen nach
EN 10021.
Fils en acier pour ressorts mécaniques - Partie 2: Fils en acier trempés à l'huile et revenus
Domaine d'application
1.1 La présente partie 2 de l'EN 10270 s'applique aux fils pour ressorts trempés à l'huile et revenus réalisés en aciers non alliés ou en aciers alliés. Ils sont d'abord soumis à des contraintes de torsion comme c'est le cas pour les ressorts de compression et de traction et, dans certains cas particuliers, pour des applications où les fils pour ressorts sont soumis à des efforts de pliage, tels que les ressorts de forme.
En règle générale, les aciers non alliés sont utilisés pour des applications à température ambiante, alors que les aciers alliés sont généralement utilisés à une température plus élevée que la température ambiante. Les aciers alliés peuvent être également sélectionnés pour leur résistance moyenne à la traction plus élevée.
1.2 Les conditions générales techniques de livraison données dans l'EN 10021 s'ajoutent aux dispositions de la présente partie de l'EN 10270.
