scope:

This document specifies deformation properties perpendicular to the surface of the product.

This document can be applied as a supplement to all product standards for flat products and sections of fully killed steels, except stainless steels. It covers products having a nominal thickness (t) between 15 mm and 400 mm of steels with a specified minimum upper yield strength ReH or proof strength R_p0,2 ≤ 960 MPa1) for which improved through thickness properties are required.

This document can be applied to other steel types if agreed at the time of the order.

This document can be applied to products with thickness between 10 mm ≤ t <15 mm if agreed at the time of the order. See option 1.

This document can be applied to products with thickness t > 400 mm if agreed at the time of the order. See option 2.
