Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 16160 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 17, Steel, Subcommittee SC 12, Continuous mill
flat rolled products.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 16160:2005), which has been technically
revised.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 16160:2011(E)

Continuously hot-rolled steel sheet products — Dimensional
and shape tolerances
1 Scope
This International Standard applies to dimensional and shape tolerances for all continuously hot-rolled steel
sheet products.
NOTE Hot-rolled steel strip and hot-rolled heavy-thickness steel sheet coils are not covered by this International
Standard.
2 Dimensional tolerances
Dimensional tolerances are given in Tables 1 to 10.

The values specified do not apply to the uncropped ends for a total length, l, of a mill edge coil. The total length, l, would
be calculated using the following formula:
90
Total length, l, in metres =
Thickness in millimetres
provided that the result was not greater than 20 m, inclusive of both ends.
When International Standards that reference this standard permit slitting sheet to less than 600 mm in width to be
considered as sheet, tolerances shall be subject to agreement.
a
For specified strength levels of R = 360 MPa and greater, increase the thickness tolerances by 10 %, applying normal rounding-off
e
procedures.
b
Thickness is measured at any point on the sheet not less than 25 mm from a sheared edge and 40 mm from a mill edge. Points

closer than these are subject to negotiation.
