This document specifies the method for non-destructive thickness measurement via the magnetic type of electrodeposited nickel coatings, also called “e-nickel”, on magnetic or non-magnetic substrates.
It is possible that the method is not applicable to autocatalytic (electroless) nickel coatings, since these coatings are often non-magnetic due to their chemical composition.
For the purposes of this document, two types of substrates are distinguished:
a) nickel coatings on magnetic substrates (type A coatings);
b) nickel coatings on non-magnetic substrates (type B coatings).
Not all instruments are applicable to both types of coating.
The effective measuring ranges of instruments using the principle of magnetic attraction are up to 50 µm for type A coatings and up to 25 µm for type B coatings.
For instruments using the principle of reluctance, the effective ranges are much greater, up to 1 mm or even more. This method is applicable to both types of coatings.

This document specifies a method of determining the water content of rocks.
This document is applicable to the laboratory determination of the water content of a rock test specimen by oven-drying within the scope of geotechnical investigations. The oven-drying method is the definitive procedure used in usual laboratory practice.

The mass loss is assumed to be due to free water and is referenced to the remaining dry mass of the test specimen.
NOTE This document fulfils the requirements of the determination of water content of rock for geotechnical investigation and testing according to EN 1997-2.

This document specifies an atmospheric accelerated test procedure in two closely related variants that contain intermittent salt exposure combined with dynamic humidity patterns: variant A at constant dew point and variant B at constant temperature. These variants are used in assessing the corrosion resistance of metals in environments where there is a significant influence of chloride ions, mainly as sodium chloride from, for example, winter road de-icing salt. The results obtained do not permit far-reaching conclusions on the corrosion resistance of the tested metallic material under the whole range of environmental conditions in which it can be used. Nevertheless, the method provides information on the relative corrosion resistance of a material exposed to a salt-contaminated environment with varying humidity conditions.
The two accelerated laboratory corrosion test variants are applicable to:
— metals and their alloys (ferrous and non-ferrous);
— metallic coatings;
— chemical conversion coatings;
— organic coating on metals;
— a combination of materials and coatings that include galvanic interactions and/or crevice conditions.
NOTE 1 If testing low-alloy stainless steels according to this document, especially austenitic grades, there is a risk of exaggerated pitting, which is not representative of most service environments.
NOTE 2 This document is not suitable for testing of wax and oil-based rust protection agents, due to the constantly elevated temperature condition of the test.

The sampling procedures specified are not intended for the sampling of special petroleum products which are the subject of other International Standards, such as electrical insulating oils (covered in IEC 60475), liquefied petroleum gases (covered in ISO 4257), liquefied natural gases (covered in ISO 8943) and gaseous natural gases (covered in ISO 10715).
This document refers to methods of sampling and sampling equipment in use at the time of writing. It does not exclude the use of new equipment, provided that such equipment enables samples to be obtained according to the requirements and procedures of this document.

This document specifies the characteristics of prevailing torque (all metal) hexagon regular nuts, in steel and stainless steel, with metric coarse pitch thread M5 to M39, and with product grades A and B.
NOTE These nuts are designed with an overall height hmin = mmin (as specified in ISO 898-2 and ISO 4032 for style 1) plus the prevailing torque feature. hmax has been established in function of hmin; therefore, the tolerance (hmax – hmin) does not follow the ISO code system for tolerances (IT system).
If in certain cases other specifications are requested, property classes and stainless steel grades can be selected from ISO 898-2 or ISO 3506-2.
