5 Classification of grades
Steels covered in this document are classified according to their structure into:
— austenitic steels,
— austenitic-ferritic steels,
— ferritic steels,
— martensitic steels,
— precipitation hardening steels.
See also EN 10088-1:2023, Annex C.
6 Requirements
6.1 Steelmaking process
Unless otherwise agreed at the time of enquiry and order, the steelmaking and manufacturing process
for steels conforming to this document shall be at the discretion of the manufacturer.
6.2 Delivery condition
The products shall be supplied in the delivery condition agreed at the time of enquiry and order by
reference to the conditions given in Table 7 and, where different alternatives exist, to the treatment
conditions given in Tables 8 to 19 and 25 (see also Annex B).
6.3 Chemical composition
6.3.1 The chemical composition requirements given in Tables 2 to 5 apply in respect of the chemical
composition according to the cast analysis.
Elements not quoted (“-”) or not listed in these tables shall not be intentionally added to the steel without
the agreement of the purchaser except for finishing the cast. All precautions shall be taken to avoid the
addition of such elements from scrap and other materials used in production which would impair
mechanical properties and the suitability of the steel.
6.3.2 The product analysis may deviate from the limiting values for the cast analysis given in Tables 2
to 5 by the values listed in Table 6.
6.4 Chemical corrosion resistance properties
For austenitic, austenitic-ferritic and ferritic stainless steels, the specifications in Tables 8, 9 and 10,
referring to resistance to intergranular corrosion as defined in EN ISO 3651-2 applies (see also 7.4.6).
NOTE 1 EN ISO 3651-2 is not applicable for testing martensitic and precipitation hardening steels.
NOTE 2 The corrosion resistance of stainless steels is very dependent on the type of environment and can
therefore not always be clearly ascertained through laboratory tests. It is therefore advisable to draw on the
available experience of the use of the steels.
6.5 Mechanical properties
6.5.1 The mechanical properties at room temperature as specified in Tables 8 to 12 apply for hot
worked products of every condition, condition 1U and semi-finished products excluded, for cold
processed products in condition 2D (excluding wire), and for each specified heat treatment condition.
For cold processed products of every specified condition, condition 2D and wire excluded, and each
specified heat treatment condition, the mechanical properties at room temperature as specified in
Tables 13 to 17 apply. For these products, the condition is the prime property with the mechanical
properties secondary.
If by agreement at the time of ordering the products shall be supplied in a non-heat-treated condition,
the mechanical properties specified in Tables 8 to 17 shall be obtained from reference test pieces which
have received the appropriate heat treatment (simulated heat treatment).
For wire, the properties as specified in Tables 18 and 19 apply.
For bars which are intentionally cold work hardened in order to increase their tensile strength to a
specified level, the mechanical properties at room temperature as specified in Table 25 apply. For these
products, the mechanical properties are prime, with the condition a secondary property.
NOTE Austenitic steels are insensitive to brittle fracture in the solution annealed condition. Because they do
not have a pronounced transition temperature, which is characteristic of other steels, they are also useful for
application at cryogenic temperatures.
6.5.2 The values in Tables 20 to 24 apply for the 0,2 %- and 1,0 %-proof strength at elevated
temperatures.
6.5.3 A number of grades in Tables 2 to 5 are not listed or have limited information included in Tables
13 to 25. In this case, grade dimensions and corresponding mechanical properties shall be agreed upon
at the time of enquiry and order.
In case of demand for larger diameters than stated in Tables 13 to 19, appropriate mechanical property
values shall be agreed at the time of enquiry and order.
6.6 Surface quality
The available surface finishes are given in Table 7. Slight surface imperfections, inherent to the
production process, are permitted. Exact requirements concerning maximum depth of acceptable
discontinuities for bars, rods and sections in the relevant conditions are given in Table 1.

Depth of discontinuities is understood as being the distance, measured normally to the surface, between the bottom of the
discontinuities and that surface.
b
At the time of enquiry and order it may be agreed that the product shall be delivered with a surface being technically defect
free by manufacture. In this case, also the maximum % of delivered weight in excess of permissible depth of discontinuities
shall be agreed.
For further information, e.g. roughness in conditions 2G and 2P, see Table 7.
For wires supplied in 2H condition according to Table 18 or 2B according to Table 19 the surface quality
shall be agreed upon at the time of enquiry and order.
6.7 Internal soundness
The products shall be free of internal defects which would exclude them from being used for their usual
purpose. At the time of enquiry and order ultrasonic testing of H-beams with parallel flanges and IPE-
beams may be agreed in accordance with EN 10306 and ultrasonic testing of steel bars may be agreed in
accordance with EN 10308.
6.8 Formability at room temperature
Cold formability may be verified by elongation in the tensile test.
6.9 Dimensions and tolerances on dimensions and shape
The dimensions and the tolerances on dimensions shall be agreed at the time of enquiry and order, as far
as possible with reference to the dimensional standards listed in Table 7 and in Annex D.
6.10 Calculation of mass and tolerances on mass
6.10.1 The nominal mass shall be calculated by using the steel density given in Annex E of
EN 10088-1:2023 and the nominal dimensions of the steel product.
6.10.2 The dimensional standards listed in Table 7 or in Annex D do not specify tolerances on mass,
which therefore may be agreed at the time of enquiry and order.
7 Inspection and testing
7.1 General
The appropriate process control, inspection, testing and modelling shall be carried out to ensure that the
product complies with the requirements of the order.
This includes the following:
— suitable frequency of verification of the dimensions of the products;
— adequate intensity of visual examination of the surface quality of the products;
— appropriate frequency and type of test to ensure that the correct grade of steel is used.
The nature and frequency of these verifications, examinations and tests is determined in the light of the
degree of consistency that has been determined by the evidence of the quality system. In view of this,
verifications by specific tests for these requirements are not necessary unless otherwise agreed.
7.2 Agreement on tests and inspection documents
7.2.1 Products complying with this document shall be ordered and delivered with one of the inspection
documents as specified in EN 10204. The type of document shall be agreed upon at the time of enquiry
and order. If the order does not contain any specification of this type, at least a test report 2.2 shall be
issued.
7.2.2 If it is agreed to issue a test report 2.2 in accordance with EN 10204 it shall indicate the following
information:

the parallel length). In cases of doubt and in referee testing these test pieces shall be used.
The tensile strength, elongation after fracture and the 0,2 %-proof strength shall be determined. In
addition, for austenitic steels in condition 1C, 1E, 1D, 1X, 1G and 2D only, the 1,0 %-proof strength shall
also be determined.
For wire of nominal diameter < 4 mm, the tensile test is made directly on the product using a gauge length
of 100 mm.
7.4.3 If a tensile test at elevated temperature has been ordered, this shall be carried out in accordance
with EN ISO 6892-2. If the proof strength shall be verified, the 0,2 %-proof strength shall be determined,
for ferritic, martensitic, precipitation hardening and austenitic-ferritic steels. In the case of austenitic
steels, the 0,2 % and the 1,0 %-proof strength shall be determined.
7.4.4 For the determination of the tensile properties, the manufacturer may use modelling with a
verification method approved in accordance with EN 10373, if agreed with the purchaser at the time of
enquiry and order.
7.4.5 If an impact test has been ordered, it shall be carried out in accordance with EN ISO 148-1 on test
pieces with a V-notch. The impact test shall be performed according to EN ISO 148-1, and using a striker
with a radius of 2 mm (KV ). The test results shall be determined as an average value obtained from a set
of at least three test pieces (see also EN 10021).
7.4.6 A Brinell hardness test shall be carried out in accordance with EN ISO 6506-1.
7.4.7 The resistance to intergranular corrosion shall be tested in accordance with EN ISO 3651-2.
7.4.8 The tolerances on dimensions and form of the product, and the measurement of dimension and
form shall be in accordance with the requirements of the relevant dimensional standards, where
available.
7.5 Retests
Retests shall be carried out in accordance with EN 10021.
8 Marking
8.1 Marking shall be durable.
8.2 Unless otherwise agreed, the requirements listed in Table 27 apply.
8.3 Unless otherwise agreed, the products shall be marked as follows:
— semi-finished products, bars and sections in thicknesses over 35 mm by inking, adhesive labels,
electrolytic etching or stamping;
— bars and sections in thicknesses up to 35 mm by labels attached to the bundle or by means of the
possibilities listed in the first hyphen;
— rods by means of a label attached to the coil.
If the marking shall be applied by inking or adhesive label, the inks or adhesives should be carefully
selected to ensure that resistance to corrosion is not impaired.
