when the grade is selected.
4.2 Delivery conditions
The product shall be supplied on the following basis, unless the purchaser specifies otherwise on the
enquiry and order:
a) in the case of tinplate with cathodic surface passivation treatment using a dichromate salt of an
alkali metal (see 6.3) ;
b) where differential tin coatings are ordered the heavier coated surface shall be indicated by
continuous parallel lines spaced at 75 mm intervals (see clause 11) ;
Page 8
c) for double reduced tinmill products - with a stone surface finish (see note 1 to Table 1.) ;

NOTE 1 Double reduced product is only supplied as stone finish.
NOTE 2 For guidance on the measurement of surface roughness, refer to EN ISO 4288.
NOTE 3 The appearance is governed by:
a) the surface characteristics of the steel base which principally result from controlled preparation of
the work rolls used during the final stages of temper rolling ;
b) the mass of the coating applied ; and
c) whether the tin layer is flow-melted or unflow-melted.
NOTE 4 For de-tinning prior to testing for surface roughness, see annex B.
6.3 Passivation
Under normal conditions of transport and storage, tinmill products shall be suitable for surface
treatments such as established lacquering and printing operations.
ECCS is not subject to a passivation treatment.
After tinning, tinplate is subject to a passivation treatment in which chromium and chromium oxides
are deposited on to each surface to improve resistance to oxidation and improve suitability for
lacquering and printing. There are two tinplate passivation processes in common use:-
a) Code 311, which is the most widely used and is a process of cathodic treatment in a solution of
sodium dichromate ;
b) Code 300, which is a simple chemical dip treatment in a sodium dichromate solution.
Code 311 will normally be supplied unless otherwise specified.
Values per surface for total chromium shall be as follows:-
Code 311 3,5 to 9,0 mg/m
Code 300 1,0 to 3,0 mg/m
The preferred method of measurement is the diphenylcarbazide method (see annex C)
Page 11
6.4 Oiling
Tinmill products, coils and sheets, shall be supplied with an oil coating. The oil shall be recognized
(i.e. by the relevant national or international authority) as suitable for food packaging. Unless
otherwise agreed at the time of order (see 4.2 h)) the oils used shall be dioctyl sebacate (DOS) for
tinplate and either DOS or butyl stearate oil (BSO) for ECCS.
Oil shall be applied uniformly across the surface in quantities which, where applicable, are compatible
with lacquering, printing and handling operations and cause no de-wetting or excessive dust pick up.
7 Coatings
7.1 Electrolytic tinplate
7.1.1 Properties
Values for tin coatings for single surfaces shall be as shown in Table 2. The values shown shall apply
to single spot measurements.
NOTE Guidance on the marking and identification of differentially coated tinplate is provided in clause 11.
The mass per unit area for equally and differentially coated tinplate shall be determined on test pieces
taken from samples selected in accordance with clause 12 and tested in accordance with 7.1.2. In
cases of dispute the referee method given in annex D shall be used.

accurately determined area not less than 2500 mm , and preferably in the form of discs, shall be
carefully prepared. The test pieces shall be taken not less than 25 mm from the edges.
7.1.2.2 Method of determination
The tin coating mass shall be expressed in grams of tin per square metre to the nearest 0,1 g/m .
For routine quality control purposes the coating masses may be determined by any of the recognised
and acceptable analytical methods but, in case of dispute and for all retests, the method described in
annex D shall be the referee method.
The tin coating mass of a consignment shall be taken as the average of all the results.

chromium content of the oxides and hydroxides.
7.2.2 Test method
7.2.2.1 Test pieces
From each sheet selected in accordance with clause 12, four discs, each of area not less than
2 500 mm , shall be taken from each of the three sets of positions. The test area of each disc shall be
of an accurately determined area not less than 2 000 mm . The edge test pieces shall be taken not
less than 25 mm from the edges.
Two of the four discs (two per surface) from each position shall be used for the separate
determinations of the masses of chromium in the metallic chromium layer and the chromium oxide
layer on one surface of the sheet and the other two discs shall be used for the corresponding
determinations on the other surface.
Page 13
7.2.2.2 Method of determination
The masses of metallic chromium and chromium in oxide shall be expressed in milligrams per square
metre to the nearest 1 mg/m .
For routine test purposes the coating masses may be determined by any of the recognized and
acceptable analytical methods but, in cases of dispute and for all retests, the method described in
annex E shall be the referee method.
Any tests carried out using the test in annex E shall be performed on untreated material, in the as
produced state.
8 Mechanical properties
8.1 Classification
8.1.1 General
A number of different mechanical properties may be determined for tinmill products.
No single mechanical test can measure all the factors which may affect their fabrication
characteristics, nor is it possible to apply any single test satisfactorily to the range of tinmill products
currently produced.
Individual mechanical properties can significantly influence the performance of tinplate in processing
and subsequent intended use and will vary depending on the steel type and the methods of casting,
annealing and temper rolling employed.
NOTE 1 The term “temper” when applied to tinmill products, summarises a combination of interrelated
properties.
The test considered to provide the best guide to mechanical properties is the tensile test which
measures yield or proof strength and tensile strength. For the purpose of this European Standard
these tests form the basis of the classification shown in Table 4. In cases of dispute, the tensile test
shall be the referee method.
NOTE 2 The tensile test is a laboratory test which is not always available to users. Tests which are suitable
for in plant evaluation of tinmill products are the Rockwell hardness test (see annex F) and Springback test
(see annex G).The Rockwell hardness test is suitable for use with SR materials and the Springback test for DR.
The Rockwell hardness test should be used as a means of fault diagnosis for DR material only in the absence of
suitable samples and equipment for the preferred tests.
NOTE 3 Samples used for Rockwell hardness testing shall be de-tinned and for CA products, adequately
aged. Artificial ageing will normally be necessary where the material has not been pre-stoved through a
lacquering or printing process and this can be achieved by heating the specimen to 200 °C for 20 minutes.
8.1.2 Test method for tensile properties
8.1.2.1 Test pieces
For each sheet selected in accordance with clause 12, cut two rectangular test pieces approximately
200 mm 25 mm wide, with the rolling direction parallel to the length of the test piece, at the position
marked Z in Figure 1. Ensure that the edge test pieces clear the edges of the sheet by a minimum of
25 mm. Before carrying out the tensile test, artificially age the test pieces at 200 °C for 20 minutes.

8.1.2.2 Test method
Determine the 0,2 % proof strength as described in EN 10002-1 using the conditions specified in
annex A of EN 10002-1 for thin products.
Carry out one test on each of the test pieces, i.e. two tests per sheet selected.
Calculate the representative proof strength for the consignment as the arithmetic mean of all the proof
strength results on all the sample sheets taken from the consignment.
NOTE The tensile test is a laboratory test which is not always available to users. Tests which are suitable
for in plant evaluation of tinmill products are the Rockwell hardness test (see annex F) and Springback test
(see annex G).The Rockwell hardness test is suitable for use with SR materials and the Springback test for DR.
The Rockwell hardness test should be used as a means of fault diagnosis for DR material only in the absence of
suitable samples and equipment for the preferred tests.
8.1.3 Annealing for tinplate
Annealing for tinplate shall be either batch annealing or continuous annealing and shall be specified
by the purchaser at the time of enquiry and order. (see 4.1 f))
NOTE The forming properties of tinmill products will differ depending on the type of annealing employed.
8.2 Mechanical properties of tinmill products
When tested as described in 8.1.2.2 the mechanical properties shall be as given in Table 4.
NOTE For routine testing of double reduced products the proof strength may be determined using the
springback test as described in annex G. However, in cases of dispute, the method given in 8.1.2.2 is used.

NOTE 8 Informative annex I gives a list of former designations.
9 Tolerances on dimensions and shape
9.1 General
Tolerances on dimensions and shape shall be as specified in 9.2 to 9.4, together with appropriate
methods of measurement. The tolerances shall apply to materials sampled in accordance with
clause 12.
9.2 Thickness and feather edge
9.2.1 Thickness
The thickness of the material shall conform to the following:-
a) the deviation from the agreed thickness measured at the centre line of the strip shall not exceed
5 % ;
b) the deviation from the agreed thickness measured at any point not within 6 mm of the mill
trimmed edge shall be within +5 % to –8 % ;
c) the average thickness shall not deviate from the nominal thickness by more than ± 2 % for
consignments comprising more than 10 000 sheets (or metre equivalent when in coil form).
NOTE The agreed thickness will normally be the ordered thickness.
Page 16
9.2.2 Test method for thickness
Thickness shall be measured using a spring loaded micrometer accurate to 0,001 mm. The
micrometer shall have a ball ended shank of approximately 3 mm diameter, and a curved surface
base anvil of approximately 25 mm radius.
Measurements shall be made to the nearest 0,001 mm.
Thickness at individual points shall not be measured within 6 mm of an edge.
9.2.3 Feather edge
Feather edge is the thinning of material along the mill trimmed coil edge. For both sheet and coil, the
thickness when measured at a distance of 6 mm from the mill trimmed edge shall not vary by more
than 6 % from the centre thickness measured at right angles to the trimmed edge.
9.2.4 Test method for feather edge
The measurement of feather edge on sheet or coil, three individual points shall be measured on the
same straight line at right angles to the rolling direction using a spring loaded micrometer as
previously described.
The three measurements shall be made along the stated line at the centre of the rolling width and
6 mm from each trimmed rolling width edge.
9.3 Linear dimensions
9.3.1 Width and length
A rectangle of the ordered dimension shall be available from within each sheet. The rolling width shall
not differ from the ordered dimension, by more than mm. The sheared length of a sheet shall not
differ from the ordered dimension by more than mm.
9.3.2 Out-of-squareness of sheets
Out-of-squareness is the deviation of an edge from a straight line drawn at a right angle to the other
side of the sheet, touching one corner and extending to the opposite edge. (see Figure 2).
The out-of-squareness expressed as a percentage is calculated as follows:
deviation (A)
out-of-squareness (%) = 100
sheet dimension (B)
For each sheet in the sample, the out-of-squareness shall not exceed 0,15 %.

D = Deviation from a straight line
Figure 3 — Short pitch camber of coils
9.3.3 Short pitch camber (lateral weave) of coils
Short pitch camber is measured as the maximum deviation of the mill - trimmed edge from a straight
line forming a chord to it over a relatively short distance (see Figure 3).
Short pitch camber, measured over a chord length of 1 metre, shall not exceed 0,3 mm when
measured prior to shearing.
9.3.4 Test method for short pitch camber
The selected sample is placed against a straight edge and short pitch camber (D) is determined by
using a gauge of 0,3 mm diameter. Where the gauge will fit between the straight edge and the
sample, the product is deemed to be out of specification.

9.4 Shape
9.4.1 Edge wave
Figure 4 — Edge wave
The wave height (h) at any point shall not exceed 2,5 mm (see Figure 4). No more than six waves in
excess of 1,5 mm shall be present over a cut length of 1 m.
9.4.2 Test method for edge wave
To measure edge wave each sample is laid on a flat horizontal surface which is larger than the sheet.
Wave heights are determined by using bars of standard diameters in increments of 0,25 mm.
The wave height shall be given as the bar diameter that just fits under the wave at the edge of the
sheet.
9.4.3 Bow
Bow is the residual curvature in sheet or coil such that the distance between the edges is less than
the appropriate sheet or coil dimension. Bow may be either convex or concave face uppermost on the
bulk package. The normal convention is to express convex bow uppermost as a positive (+) value and
concave bow as a negative (-) value (see Figure 5).
Page 19
Figure 5 — Bow
The individual values of both longitudinal and transverse bow shall not exceed 30 mm. When
purchased as coil, this shall apply after normal levelling operations.
Where both convex and concave bowed sheets are present in the same bulk package, the sum of the
maximum values of each, ignoring the sign (+/-), shall not exceed 30 mm.
9.4.4 Test method for bow
When selecting the sample it is necessary to identify the upper and lower surface of each sheet with
respect to the bulk package.
The maximum value of longitudinal or transverse bow is measured by hanging the sample sheet from
one horizontal edge against a rigid vertical surface, noting whether the upper or lower surface is
against the vertical surface, so that the bow causes the bottom edge of the sheet to stand away from
that surface.
The sample sheet shall be evenly supported along the top to a depth not exceeding 25 mm from the
sheet edge. The maximum distance the bottom edge stands away from the vertical (a in Figure 5) is
measured with a steel ruler to the nearest 1 mm and recorded with the appropriate plus or minus sign
indicating convex or concave bow respectively.
9.4.5 Centre fullness
Centre fullness shall be determined by measurement of edge lift developed during the test. The value
shall not exceed 9 mm. (see Figure 6).
NOTE Centre fullness is not clearly visible in a bulk package but usually becomes apparent during either
printing or slitting. This feature is best observed when the sheet is suspended vertically from one corner.
a
Page 20
Figure 6 — Centre fullness
9.4.6 Test method for centre fullness
This test applies only to sheets of not less than 600 mm coil width and 750 mm cut length. No test
method is proposed for sheets below these dimensions.
A sample sheet shall be laid on a flat, horizontal, surface which is larger than the sheet. A rigid flat
board, approximately 450 mm 600 mm 25 mm thick shall be placed on the centre of the sheet with
the 600 mm dimensions parallel to the sheet rolling direction. It may be necessary to test the sheet on
both surfaces.
The board shall be moved around the surface of the sheet centre until a position giving highest edge
lift can be identified. Pressure shall be then applied to the board so as to flatten the sheet in the
centre and raise the edge to a maximum height. During the test the board shall not overlap the edges
to be measured.
Edge lift shall be determined by using a 9 mm diameter bar and the product is deemed out of
specification when the bar fits under the edge of the sheet at the point of maximum lift (h in Figure 6).
9.4.7 Burr
Burr shall not be present to such an extent as to interfere with the processing of the product.
10 Welds within a coil
10.1 General
The coils shall be continuous, within the weight limits supplied; if necessary by means of electrical
welds. Requirements relating to the numbers, locations and dimensions of welds permitted within a
coil, are given in 10.2 to 10.4.
Page 21
10.2 Number of welds
The number of welds in a coil shall not exceed three in lengths of 10 000 m.
10.3 Location of welds
The location of each weld in a coil shall be marked with a punched hole and additionally be indicated
visibly.
NOTE The location of each weld may be indicated by the insertion of a piece of non-rigid material. However,
alternative methods may be agreed between the producer and the purchaser at the time of enquiry and order.
10.4 Dimensions of welds
10.4.1 Thickness
The total thickness of any weld shall not exceed 1.5 times the nominal thickness of the material
forming the weld.
10.4.2 Overlap
In any lap weld, the total length of overlap shall not exceed 10 mm. The free overlap shall not exceed
5 mm.
11 Marking of differentially coated cold reduced tinplate
In order to distinguish between tinplate with differential coatings on the two surfaces and that with
equal coatings, differentially coated tinplate shall be marked on one surface with straight parallel lines
about 1 mm wide.
Marking shall be lines spaced at 75 mm intervals, indicating that the tinplate is differentially coated but
does not identify the precise specification.
The heavier coated surface shall normally be marked with continuous lines unless specified otherwise
by the purchaser. Where marking is required on the lighter coated surface, interrupted lines shall be
used.
The letter ‘D’ in the product description shall be adjacent to the surface to be marked and its position
shall be used to indicate the required packing orientation as follows:
if the ‘D’ is at the start of the description the marked surface shall be presented on the upper
surface of the sheets as packed or the outer surface of the coil.
if the ‘D’ is at the end of the description the marked surface shall be presented on the lower
surface of the sheets as packed or the inner surface of the coil.
Page 22
The following are examples of the system of marking:
EXAMPLE - D 5.6/2.8 - 5.6 coated surface marked with continuous lines.
Marking on the top of sheets or on the outside of coil;
or - 2.8/5.6 D - 5.6 coated surface marked with continuous lines.
