ECISS/TC 31 - Steel castings

This European Standard applies to heat resistant steel castings, for general purposes (non pressure) above 600°C. It applies also to heat resistant nickel and cobalt base alloys.  This standard relates to castings manufactured from ferritic, austenitic-ferritic, austenitic steels, nickel and cobalt base alloys (characterised by their chemical composition (see table 1) and mechanical properties (see table 2)). In cases where castings are joined by welding by the founder, this European Standard applies.

This part of EN 1559 specifies the additional technical delivery conditions for steel castings unless other conditions have been agreed at the time of enquiry and order. This standard is also applicable to nickel and cobalt alloy castings.

This European standard applies to corrosion resistant steel castings for general purposes. This standard relates to castings manufactured from matensitic, austenitic, fully austenitic and austenitic-ferritic steel grades characterised by their chemical composition and mechanical properties. In cases where castings are joined by welding by the founder, this European Standard applies. In cases where castings are welded: - to wrought products (plates, tubes, forgings); - or by non founders; this European Standard does not apply.

According to the general delivery conditions of EN 10213-1 this standard specifies the chemical and mechanical requirements to be met under specific inspection of austenic and austenitic-ferritic grades.

In accordance to the general delivery conditions of EN 10213-1 this standard specifies the chemical and mechanical requirements to be met under specific inspection of steel grades for use at room temperature and elevated temperatures.

In accordance to the general delivery condiions of EN 10213-1 this standard specifies the chemcal and mechanical requirements to be met under specific inspection of steel grades for use at low temperatures.

This European Standard applies to steel castings for pressure-containing parts. It includes aterials which are used for the manufacture of components subject to pressure vessel construction codes.  This standard relates to castings manufactured from unalloyed and alloyed steel grades (characterised by their composition and mechanical properties).           Part I specifies general technical delivery conditions.           The standard comprises three other parts specifying requirements for:           - steel grades for use at room and elevated temperatures (see EN 10213-2);           - steel grades for use at low temperatures - (see EN 10213-3);           -  austenitic and austenitic-ferritic steel grades - (see EN 10213-4).  In cases where castings are joined by welding by the founder this EN applies.  In cases where castings are welded           - to wrought products (plates1 tubes1 forgings...);           - or by non founders;           this European Standard does not apply.
