EN 10132:2021 (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.
The appearences indicated in Table 1 for the conditions +A, +LC or +CR apply to the upper/outside
surface of coils and the upper/top surface of cut lengths. The appearance of the other side shall
correspond at least to surface appearance MA. These requirements to the appearances shall not apply
to the first two inner and outer laps of coil or to cut lengths cut from them.

The delivery condition – annealed to achieve spheroidised carbides (+AC) – may be agreed. In such
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.

---------------------- Page: 9 ----------------------
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.
The appearences indicated in Table 1 for the conditions +A, +LC or +CR apply to the upper/outside
surface of coils and the upper/top surface of cut lengths. The appearance of the other side shall
correspond at least to surface appearance MA. These requirements to the appearances shall not apply
to the first two inner and outer laps of coil or to cut lengths cut from them.

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.

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,
