The standard addresses dimensions and tolerances, mass calculation, designation and ordering information, steel classification, chemical composition, intergranular corrosion resistance, mechanical properties, surface quality, internal defects, inspection and testing, marking, and guidance for subsequent processing and heat treatment.
It applies to standardized and special stainless steel grades in ferritic, martensitic, precipitation-hardening, austenitic, and austenitic-ferritic categories. The document also references applicable European standards for testing, dimensions, inspection documents, and steel designation.
Application Scope: Use this standard for specifying, ordering, inspecting, testing, and marking general-purpose stainless steel sheet, plate, and strip supplied in hot- or cold-rolled conditions.
