For a short transition period there will be a coexistence of EN 10025-1:2004 with EN 10025-2:2019 to -
EN 10025-6:2019, since the new EN 10025-1 has to fulfil the requirements of the CPR and will
therefore be published later. For this short transition period up-to-the publication of the next edition of
part 1 the following is to be taken into account for EN 10025-1:2004:
a) all dated and undated references to EN 10025-1:2004 to EN 10025-6:2004 are unchanged to this
version with following exception: In 9.2.2.1 the references are 8.3.1 and 8.3.2 instead of 8.4.1 and
8.4.2;
b) Clauses 5, 12 and 13 of EN 10025-1:2004 are no longer relevant.
The main changes with respect to the previous edition are listed below:
a) part 5 is now a stand-alone standard for technical delivery conditions including the preparation of
samples and test pieces, the test methods, the marking, labelling and packaging and the drawings;
b) for applications under the CPR this document and part 1 are to be used together;
c) requirements for elements not definded were added to 7.2.1 and 7.2.2;
d) Option 33 were added, Options 9 and 21 were deleted;
e) key to Figure A.1 was updated;
f) steel grades S355J4, S420J0W, S420J2W, S420J4W, S460J0W, S460J2W and S460J4W were added to
Tables 1 to 5;
g) Annex B concerning the corresponding EURONORMS deleted;
h) references were updated and document editorial revised.

— ISO Online browsing platform: available at http://www.iso.org/obp
3.1
normalized rolled
+N
rolling process in which the final deformation is carried out in a certain temperature range leading to a
material condition equivalent to that obtained after normalizing so that the specified values of the
mechanical properties are retained even after normalizing
Note 1 to entry: In international publications for both the normalizing rolling, as well as the thermomechanical
rolling, the expression “controlled rolling” may be found. However in view of the different applicability of the
products a distinction of the terms is necessary.
3.2
as-rolled
+AR
conventional hot rolling without any normalized rolling or thermomechanical rolling and/or heat
treatment condition like normalizing or quenching
3.3
thermomechanical rolling
+M
rolling process in which the final deformation is carried out in a certain temperature range leading to a
material condition with certain properties which cannot be achieved or repeated by heat treatment
alone
Note 1 to entry: Thermomechanical rolling leading to the delivery condition +M can include processes with an
increasing cooling rate with or without tempering including self-tempering but excluding direct quenching and
quenching and tempering.
Note 2 to entry: In some publications the word TMCP (Thermomechanical Control Process) is also used.
3.4
normalizing
+N
heat treatment consisting of austenitizing followed by air cooling
3.5
steel with improved atmospheric corrosion resistance
steel in which a certain number of alloying elements, such as P, Cu, Cr, Ni, Mo, has been added in order
to increase its resistance to atmospheric corrosion, by forming an auto-protective oxide layer on the
base metal under the influence of weather conditions
Note 1 to entry: Steel with improved atmospheric corrosion resistance is often called weathering steel.
Note 2 to entry: Additional information for the use of steel with improved atmospheric corrosion resistance is
given in Annex B.

specification, see 5.1 a) to d) and f).
6 Manufacturing process
6.1 Steel making process
The steel making process is at the discretion of the manufacturer with the exclusion of the open hearth
(Siemens-Martin) process.
See Option 1, Clause 13 (details of manufacturing process).
6.2 Deoxidation
The deoxidation methods are designated as follows:
a) FN Rimming steel not permitted;
b) FF Fully killed steel containing nitrogen binding elements in amounts sufficient to bind
the available nitrogen (for example min. 0,020 % total aluminium). The usual
guideline is a minimum aluminium to nitrogen ratio of 2:1, when no other
nitrogen binding elements are present. Such other elements and their content (%
mass) shall be reported in the inspection document.
The method of deoxidation shall be as given in Table 2.
6.3 Delivery conditions
Unless otherwise agreed upon the delivery condition of products can be +AR, +N or +M at the
manufacturer's discretion.
See Option 19, Clause 13 (delivery condition +AR, +N or +M).
If an inspection document is required (see 8.1) the delivery condition shall be indicated in it with its
specific symbol (+AR, +N or +M). In case the products are ordered in the delivery condition +AR, +N or
+M the specific symbol (+AR, +N or +M) shall be added to the designation (see 4.2.2).
NOTE The requirements on the mechanical properties of the steel grades according to this document are not
depending on the delivery condition.
7 Requirements
7.1 General
The requirements in 7.2 and 7.3 apply for sampling, preparation of test pieces and testing specified in
Clauses 9 and 10.
7.2 Chemical composition
7.2.1 The chemical composition determined by heat analysis shall comply with the specified values of
Table 2.
For elements not defined in the table for the chemical composition for heat analysis, limit values of
Table 1 of EN 10020:2000 shall apply as maximum values.
7.2.2 The limits applicable for the product analysis are given in Table 3.
The product analysis shall be carried out when specified at the time of the order.
See Option 2, Clause 13 (product analysis).
For elements not defined in table for the chemical composition for product analysis, limit values of
Table 1 of EN 10020:2000 shall apply as maximum values.
7.2.3 The maximum carbon equivalent values based on the heat analysis given in Table 2 shall apply.
For determining the carbon equivalent value the following IIW (International Institute of Welding)
formula shall be used:
Cr++Mo V Ni+ Cu
Mn
CEV=C++ +
6 5 15
7.3 Mechanical properties
7.3.1 General
7.3.1.1 Under the inspection and testing conditions as specified in Clauses 8, 9 and 10 and in the
delivery condition as specified in 6.3 the mechanical properties shall comply with the values given in
Tables 4 and 5.
Stress relieving at more than 580 °C or for over 1 h can lead to a deterioration of the mechanical
properties of the steel grade. For normalized and normalized rolled flat products the maximum stress
relief temperature should be 560 °C. If the purchaser intends to stress relief the products at higher
temperatures or for longer times than mentioned above the minimum values of the mechanical
properties after such a treatment should be agreed upon at the time of the order.
7.3.1.2 For flat and bar products ordered and supplied in the normalized or normalized rolled
condition (delivery condition +N) the mechanical properties shall comply with the relevant tables for
mechanical properties in the normalized or normalized rolled condition or after normalizing by heat
treatment after delivery or after hot forming if the provisions of CEN/TR 10347 are satisfied.
Products can be susceptible to a deterioration in mechanical strength if they are subjected to incorrect
heat treatment processes at higher temperature such as flame straightening, rerolling, etc. Products in
the +N delivery condition are less sensitive than other delivery conditions, but it is recommended that
guidance is sought from the manufacturer if any higher temperature processing is required.
7.3.1.3 For flat products the nominal thickness applies. For long products of irregular section the
nominal thickness of that part from which the samples are taken applies (see Annex A).
7.3.2 Impact properties
