3.1
patented cold drawn wire
wire drawn to size by cold deformation of a starting material that has been subjected to a thermal
treatment of patenting (see EN ISO 4885), giving structure suitable for subsequent rolling or drawing
Note 1 to entry: For spring with Dynamic duty (D) according to Table 1, the wire has to be subjected to continuous
patenting to achieve a homogeneous microstructure (for example, continuous lead patenting prior to the wire
drawing).
4 Classification
The grade of spring wire used depends on the stress level and the nature of the duty. Where springs are
subjected to static stresses or infrequent dynamic loading, a wire grade for static duty (S) shall be used.
In the other cases with frequent or predominantly dynamic loading and where small coiling ratios or
severe bending radius is required, a wire grade for dynamic duty (D) shall be used. Depending on the
stress level, spring wire is manufactured in 3 tensile strength grades: low, medium and high.
Table 1 gives an overview of the different grades.
Table 1 — Spring wire grades

Tensile strength Static Dynamic
Low tensile strength SL —
Medium tensile strength SM DM
High tensile strength SH DH

For specific applications another tensile strength may be agreed.
5 Information to be supplied by the purchaser
The purchaser shall clearly state in his enquiry or order the product and following information:
a) the desired quantity;
b) the term spring steel wire or straightened and cut lengths;
c) the number of this document: EN 10270-1;
d) the steel grade (see Tables 1 and 2);
e) the nominal wire diameter selected from Table 3 and for cut length the length and the length
tolerance class (see Table 8);
f) the coating indicated by its abbreviation and surface finish (see 6.3);
g) the form of delivery and unit mass (see 6.2);
h) the type of inspection document (see 7.1);
i) any particular agreement.

6 Requirements
6.1 Material
6.1.1 General
Steel spring wire shall be made from steel grades according to:
— for SL, SM and SH EN ISO 16120-2;
— for DM and DH EN ISO 16120-4.
For general requirements, EN ISO 16120-1 applies.
6.1.2 Chemical composition
The chemical composition according to the heat analysis shall comply with the limit values shown in
Table 2. The permissible deviation of the product analysis from the heat analysis shall be in accordance
with EN ISO 16120-2 and EN ISO 16120-4 respectively.

a
Such a wide range is stipulated to accommodate the whole range of sizes. For individual sizes the carbon range
is substantially more restricted.
b
For the manganese content, a different range from the one indicated in the table may be agreed at the time of
ordering, with a maximum not exceeding 1,20 % and with a minimum range of 0,20 %.
The addition of micro-alloying elements may be agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser.
NOTE Some diameter ranges require particular attention for residuals. Therefore, no figures are mentioned for
chromium, nickel, molybdenum, tin, etc., leaving room for special arrangements between Purchaser and Supplier,
dependent on their mutual processing conditions. This is also the case for the aluminium content.
6.2 Form of delivery
The wire shall be delivered in unit packages of a coil (singles, carriers or formers), spools, spoolless cores
or as straight lengths. Unless otherwise agreed at the time of ordering, the form of delivery will be coils;
straight lengths shall be supplied in bundles.
6.3 Coating and surface finish
The spring wire may be supplied phosphate coated (ph) either dry drawn or wet drawn, copper coated
(cu), zinc (Z) or zinc/aluminium (ZA) coated.
Other coatings, considered as special, can be agreed between the purchaser and the supplier
(see Annex A).

prEN 10270-1:2022 (E)
If no specific surface finish is specified, the type of finish shall be at the manufacturer’s discretion.
In addition, the wire can be ordered with an oiled surface for all surface finishes.
6.4 Mechanical properties
For the tensile strength (Rm) and reduction in area after fracture (Z) the wire grades shall satisfy the
values listed in Table 3. Reduction of area shall be measured only for wire diameter 0,80 mm < d.
The range of tensile strength values within a unit package shall not exceed the values of Table 4.

a
Wire with diameter 20 mm < d diameter is used. Where such wire is specified, the parties shall agree upon the properties and requirements at the time of
enquiry and order.
b
For sizes not mentioned, the required strength shall be derived from the mathematical formulae given in A.4.
c
For straightened and cut lengths, the tensile strength values may be up to 10 % lower, torsion values are also lowered by the straightening and cutting
operation.
d 2
1 MPa = 1 N/mm .
e
For diameters 0,05 mm ≤ d ≤ 0,18 mm, a restricted tensile strength range of 300 MPa within the specified range may be agreed.
f
Because of the small wire diameter, measurement of the depth of defects or depth of decarburization can only be carried out with difficulty. For this reason,
no maximum value is specified for this diameter range.
g
Guideline values; not mandatory for acceptance.
h
Mass values are valid only for the upper limit of the diameter range. Mass values for interim diameter values can be calculated according to the following
formula:

m = d2 x 0,062 kg / (1 000 m x mm ).

The requirements apply to unit packages the mass of which in kilograms does not exceed the value of
250 x d (d = wire diameter in mm) or a maximum value of 1 000 kg.
In cases of coils of greater mass, appropriate agreements shall be made.
6.5 Technological properties
6.5.1 Coiling test
In order to assess the uniformity of the wire in the coiling deformation and its surface condition, the
coiling test shall be carried out on wire with a diameter d ≤ 0,70 mm for the grades DM, SH and DH.
In the test as described further in 7.4.3, the test piece shall exhibit a defect-free surface without splits or
fracture, a uniform pitch of the turns after coiling and a fair dimensional regularity of its diameter.
Although the usefulness of the coiling test is not generally recognized, it has been retained since it offers
the possibility of revealing internal stresses. If doubtful test results are obtained the wire concerned
should not be rejected immediately, but efforts should be made by the parties concerned to elucidate the
cause.
6.5.2 Simple torsion test
For assessing the deformability, fracture behaviour and surface condition the torsion test shall be carried
out for all wire grades on wires in the nominal diameter range 0,70 mm < d ≤ 10 mm. The minimum
number of turns specified in Table 3 for diameters d ≤ 7,00 mm is mandatory. For wires exceeding this
size, they shall be taken only as indicative values.
In executing the test according to 7.4.5, the required number of turns shall be achieved before the test
piece fractures. The fracture of the torsion test piece shall be perpendicular to the wire axis (see
EN 10218-1: Types 1a, 2a or 3a).
Spring back resilience cracks or spring back fractures (“spoon” or “secondary” fractures) are no
