NOTE Although material symbol designations used in this standard might be the same as those in other standards using the designation system given in ISO 1190-1, the detailed composition requirements are not necessarily the same. 4.1.3 Number The material number designation is in accordance with the system given in EN 1412. 4.2 Material condition For the purposes of this standard, the following designations, which are in accordance with the system given in EN 1173, apply for the material condition: D Material condition for the product as drawn without specified mechanical properties; H. Material condition designated by the minimum value of hardness requirement for the product with mandatory hardness requirements; R. Material condition designated by the minimum value of tensile strength requirement for the product with mandatory tensile strength, 0,2 % proof strength and elongation requirements. Products in the H. condition may be specified to Vickers or Brinell hardness. The material condition designation H. is the same for both hardness test methods. Exact conversion between the material conditions designated H. and R. is not possible. Material condition is designated by only one of the above designations. 4.3 Product The product designation provides a standardised pattern of designation from which a rapid and unequivocal description of a product can be conveyed in communication.

If no tolerances are specified on the drawings of profiles, the specifications in this standard apply. It is advisable to make a suitable reference to this standard on the drawings. If required, tighter tolerances than those specified shall be agreed between the purchaser and the supplier. NOTE Dimensional tolerances are influenced by the fabrication accuracy of the tools, tool wear, and unavoidable deviations caused by fabrication. 6.6.2 Tolerances on cross-sectional dimensions 6.6.2.1 Profiles and profiled wires with a ratio bmax. or hmax. to smin. less than 20 : 1 shall conform to the requirements given in Table 5 (see Figure 2). 6.6.2.2 Profiles and profiled wires with a ratio bmax. or hmax. to smin. equal to or greater than 20 : 1 shall conform to the requirements given in Table 6 (see Figure 2).

The deviation shall be measured with the profile supported on a horizontal reference plane such that the deviation is minimised by the mass of the profile. 6.6.3.2 Twist Profiles shall be straightened to conform to the twist tolerance v which is determined by multiplying the width b of the profile with the coefficient f given in Table 10 as a function of the diameter of the circumscribing circle (see Figure 3).
