What is BS EN 10088-2:2024 - Technical delivery conditions for corrosion resistant steels about?
The second in a five-part series of European standards specifying stainless steels, BS EN 10088-2:2024 specifies special and standard grade corrosion resistant steels.
Who is BS EN 10088-2:2024 - Technical delivery conditions for corrosion resistant steels for?
Those who would benefit from using the standard include:
- steel manufacturers
- purchasers
- steel users/suppliers
- industrial equipment manufacturers & engineering services
- universities/students
What does BS EN 10088-2:2024 - Technical delivery conditions for corrosion resistant steels cover?
BS EN 10088-2:2024 specifies the technical delivery conditions for hot or cold sheet/plate and strip of standard grades and special grades of corrosion resistant stainless steels for general purposes.
NOTE: General purposes include the use of stainless steels in contact with foodstuffs. The general technical delivery conditions specified in BS EN 10021 apply in addition to the specifications of this document unless otherwise specified. BS EN 10088-2:2024 does not apply to components manufactured by further processing of the product forms listed above with quality characteristics altered as a result of such further processing.
Why should you use BS EN 10088-2:2023 - Technical delivery conditions for corrosion resistant steels?
- BS EN 10088-2:2024 gives important information on the classification, composition and technical specifications of stainless steels, helping manufacturers, engineers and other stakeholders build confidence in the quality, consistency and compatibility of stainless steels.
- BS EN 10088-2:2024 helps smooth market access, helps make supply chains more efficient and protects reputations.
- BS EN 10088-2:2024 enables purchasers to precisely specify the required grade of steels and users to guarantee that the required specification for chemical composite is met by the manufacturer.
- The revised BS EN 10088-2:2024 introduces new steels grades and removes older grades that are out of use, streamlining the standard and improving clarity for users.
