cases, limits on spheroidisation and mechanical properties may also be agreed at the time of enquiry

and order.

The condition cold rolled (+CR) can also be applied to annealed material. The condition quenched and

tempered (+QT) is aiming for a martensitic and/or bainitic structure. Specific structures may be agreed.

6.4 Traceability of the cast

The products shall be delivered by cast or part of a cast. Each product shall be traceable to the cast.

7 Requirements
7.1 Chemical composition and mechanical properties
7.1.1 General

The steel grades given in Tables 4 and 5 are delivered in the conditions as mentioned in 6.3. The

manufacturer is responsible, using the means he thinks fit, for controlling his production from the point

of view of the various quality criteria specified.
7.1.2 Chemical composition

The chemical composition determined by cast analysis shall comply with the values in Tables 4 and 5.

Permissible deviations between the limiting values for cast analysis and the values for product analysis

are given in Table 6.

oSIST prEN 10132:2020
prEN 10132:2020 (E)

The product analysis shall be carried out when specified at the time of enquiry and order (see 9.1 and

10.1).
7.1.3 Mechanical properties

The mechanical properties of the products are given in Table 7. The tensile test is the usual reference

test for the mechanical properties. If agreed at the time of enquiry and order, the hardness test with the

values given in Table 7 may be performed instead of the tensile test (and not both at the same time).

For the delivery conditions +CR and +QT the steels are supplied with tolerance on the tensile strength

with a range of 150 MPa or with tolerances on the hardness with a range of 50 HV as indicated by the

purchaser at the time of enquiry and order, see also Table 7, footnotes c and d.

For thicknesses outside this range mentioned in Clause 1, the mechanical properties shall be agreed

between the purchaser and the supplier.

Requirements for a bend test for steels in the annealed condition (+A) or annealed and skin passed

condition (+LC) may be agreed at the time of enquiry and order, see A.2

NOTE 1 For steels for quenching and tempering guidelines for the heat treatment and the minimum hardness

values in the quenched condition without tempering are shown in Table 8.

The steel may be quenched in water, oil or isothermally treated (e.g. metal bath), see Table 8.

NOTE 2 For those purchasers who specify Rockwell hardness rather than Vickers hardness or tensile strength,

Table 9 shows Rockwell hardness values for information.
7.2 Grain size

Unless otherwise agreed at the time of ordering, the grain size shall be left to the discretion of the

manufacturer. If a fine grain structure is required, the special requirement as detailed in A.3 shall be

ordered.
7.3 Surface characteristics

Surface characteristics relate to a) surface appearance, see Table 1, for delivery conditions +A or +LC or

+CR only and to b) surface finish, see Table 2 for all delivery conditions.

9 Sampling
9.1 Selection and preparation of samples for the product analysis

Samples for the product analysis, if required, shall be taken from the production lot. The selection and

preparation of the sample shall be in accordance with EN ISO 14284.

9.2 Location of samples, orientation of tensile test pieces and preparation of tensile test

pieces

The specifications of EN ISO 377 shall be observed in sampling and sample preparation. If agreed, the

samples may be taken before flattening.

The samples shall be taken from products in the delivery condition. A sample of adequate size for all the

tests to be carried out shall be taken from the product comprising the acceptance unit from any position

on the strip or cut lengths. In cases of dispute the samples shall be taken from a position at least 3 m

from one of the ends of the coil.

The tensile test pieces shall be taken from samples parallel to the direction in which the product was

rolled, in a position halfway between the centre and a longitudinal edge (see EN ISO 377). The test

pieces should not be further worked on either surface.

When cutting the test pieces from the sample, the deformation shall be minimized as far as possible. If

shears or cutting torches are used, an adequate surplus shall be allowed, which will then be further

worked.
10 Test methods
10.1 Chemical analysis

The choice of a suitable physical or chemical analytical method for the analysis shall be at the discretion

of the manufacturer. In cases of dispute, the method for the product analysis used shall be agreed taking

into account the relevant existing European Standards.

A list of available European Standards on chemical analysis is given in CEN/TR 10261.

10.2 Tensile test

The tensile test shall be carried out in accordance with EN ISO 6892-1. The manufacturer may choose

between method A or B specified in EN ISO 6892-1 for the tensile test.

The test pieces shall always have a gauge length L = 80 mm and a width of 20 mm (test piece

number 2 of EN ISO 6892-1:2019, Annex B).
10.3 Hardness test

The hardness test shall be carried out in accordance with EN ISO 6507-1 (Vickers) or EN ISO 6508-1

(Rockwell).
10.4 Retests
For retests, EN 10021 shall apply.
11 Surface protection, coiling, packaging and marking
11.1 Surface protection

The products are normally supplied oiled. In this case, both sides are protected by a coat of non-drying

neutral oil, free from foreign bodies and spread uniformly so that under the normal packing, transport,

loading and storage conditions there will be no corrosion after three months. The oil film shall be

removable by an alkaline solution or other normal solvents.

If the transport and storage conditions make special corrosion protection necessary, the user shall

inform the manufacturer of this at the time of ordering. In this case the selection of protection oils shall

be the subject of a separate agreement.

If the products are supplied in the as-rolled condition, or without oil, there is an increased risk of

scratching and rust formation during transportation and storage.
11.2 Coiling and bundling

The internal/external diameter and/or the mass of the coil to be delivered shall be agreed during

ordering. In case of cut length the mass of the bundles shall be agreed during ordering.

In case of narrow widths,
