Material condition designated by the minimum value of tensile strength requirement for the product with mandatory tensile strength and elongation requirements. 4.3 Product The product designation provides a standardized pattern of designation from which a rapid and unequivocal description of a product is conveyed in communication. It provides mutual comprehension at the international level with regard to products which meet the requirements of the relevant European Standard. The product designation is no substitute for the full content of the standard. The product designation for products to this European Standard shall consist of: — denomination (Copper tube); — number of this European Standard (EN 13348); — material condition designation (see Table 1); — nominal cross-sectional dimensions in millimetres: Outside diameter × wall thickness. The derivation of a product designation is shown in the following example. EXAMPLE Copper tube conforming to this European Standard, in material condition R290 (hard), nominal outside diameter 12 mm, nominal wall thickness 1,0 mm, shall be designated as follows: kSIST FprEN 13348:2015
