Overview - EN 10270-1:2024 (Patented cold drawn unalloyed spring steel wire)

EN 10270-1:2024 is a CEN European standard that specifies requirements for patented cold drawn unalloyed spring steel wire of circular cross‑section used in the manufacture of mechanical springs for static duty and dynamic duty applications. Approved in September 2023 (superseding the 2011/2017 edition), this part of EN 10270 covers material composition, mechanical and technological properties, surface quality, dimensions, testing, marking and delivery information. General delivery rules reference EN 10021.

Key topics and technical requirements

• Scope and classification
  • Wire grades classified for duty and tensile strength: SL (low), SM (medium), SH (high) for static duty; DM, DH for dynamic duty.
  • Dynamic‑duty wire is recommended to have more homogeneous microstructure (continuous patenting preferred).
• Material and chemical composition
  • Chemical ranges (heat analysis) defined in Table 2:
    • SL/SM/SH: C 0.35–1.00%, Si 0.10–0.30%, Mn 0.40–1.20%, P ≤0.035%, S ≤0.035%, Cu ≤0.20%
    • DM/DH: C 0.45–1.00%, Si 0.10–0.30%, Mn 0.40–1.20%, P ≤0.020%, S ≤0.025%, Cu ≤0.12%
  • Micro‑alloying may be agreed between purchaser and supplier.
• Mechanical and technological tests
  • Tensile and mechanical properties, coiling test, simple torsion, wrapping and simple bend tests.
  • Surface quality, dimensional tolerances, decarburization limits and protection/performance classes are specified.
• Supply, packaging and ordering
  • Purchaser must state steel grade, nominal diameter, coating/surface finish, form of delivery, unit mass and type of inspection document (e.g., EN 10204).

Practical applications

EN 10270-1:2024 is used to specify and procure spring wire for manufacturing mechanical springs subjected to either static loads or repeated dynamic loading. It provides the basis for:

• Selecting wire grades for appropriate fatigue resistance and processing behavior.
• Defining acceptance criteria for suppliers and inspection/testing regimes.
• Ensuring consistent wire quality for spring production and downstream forming/coiling operations.

Who should use this standard

• Spring manufacturers and designers
• Wire producers and mill quality teams
• Purchasing and procurement specialists specifying wire material
• Test laboratories and quality assurance engineers

3.1
patented cold drawn wire
wire drawn to size by cold deformation of a starting material that has been subjected to a thermal
treatment of patenting (see EN ISO 4885), giving structure suitable for subsequent rolling or drawing
Note 1 to entry: For spring with Dynamic duty (D) according to Table 1, the wire is preferably subjected to
continuous patenting to achieve a more homogeneous microstructure.
4 Classification
The grade of spring wire used depends on the stress level and the nature of the duty. Where springs are
subjected to static stresses or infrequent dynamic loading, a wire grade for static duty (S) shall be used.
In the other cases with frequent or predominantly dynamic loading and where small coiling ratios or
severe bending radius is required, a wire grade for dynamic duty (D) shall be used. Depending on the
stress level, spring wire is manufactured in 3 tensile strength grades: low, medium and high.
Table 1 gives an overview of the different grades.

Low tensile strength SL —

For specific applications, another tensile strength may be agreed.

Such a wide range is stipulated to accommodate the whole range of sizes. For individual sizes the carbon
range is substantially more restricted.
b
For the manganese content, a different range from the one indicated in the table may be agreed at the time
of ordering, with a maximum not exceeding 1,20 % and with a minimum range of 0,20 %.
The addition of micro-alloying elements may be agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser.
NOTE Some diameter ranges require particular attention for residuals. Therefore, no figures are mentioned for
chromium, nickel, molybdenum, tin, etc., leaving room for special arrangements between purchaser and supplier,
dependent on their mutual processing conditions. This is also the case for the aluminium content.
6.2 Form of delivery
The wire shall be delivered in unit packages of a coil (singles, carriers or formers), spools, spoolless cores
or as straight lengths. Unless otherwise agreed at the time of ordering, the form of delivery will be coils;
straight lengths shall be supplied in bundles.
6.3 Coating and surface finish
The spring wire may be supplied phosphate coated (ph) either dry drawn or wet drawn, copper coated
(cu), zinc (Z) or zinc/aluminium (ZA) coated.
Other coatings, considered as special, can be agreed between the purchaser and the supplier
(see Annex A).
If no specific surface finish is specified, the type of finish shall be at the manufacturer’s discretion.
In addition, the wire can be ordered with an oiled surface for all surface finishes.
6.4 Mechanical properties
For the tensile strength (R ) and reduction in area after fracture (Z), the wire grades shall satisfy the
m
values listed in Table 3. Reduction of area shall be measured only for wire diameter 0,80 mm < d.
The range of tensile strength values within a unit package shall not exceed the values of Table 4.
