heat treatment consisting of austenitizing followed by air cooling

3.3 normalizing rolling

rolling process in which the final deformation process is carried out in a certain temperature range leading to a material condition equivalent to that obtained after normalizing so that the specified mechanical properties are still met even after subsequent normalizing

3.4 thermomechanical rolling

forming process in which the final deformation takes place within a certain range of temperatures leading to a material condition having certain properties which cannot be obtained or preserved by a single heat treatment

Note 1 to entry: Thermomechanical rolling (symbol M) may include processes of increased cooling rates with or without tempering including self‑tempering but excluding definitively direct quenching and tempering.

3.5 quenching

operation after austenitizing which consists of cooling a workpiece more rapidly than in still air

Note 1 to entry: Quenching includes direct quenching.

^a In cases of the dispute the gauge length shall be L₀ = 5,65 √S₀ for test pieces from products ≥ 3 mm nominal thickness.
For products < 3 mm nominal thickness, non-proportional test pieces with a gauge length of 80 mm and a width of 20 mm shall be used, but test pieces with a gauge length of 50 mm and a width of 12,5 mm may also be applied.
For products with a nominal thickness of 3 mm to 10 mm flat proportional test pieces with two rolled surfaces and a maximum width of 30 mm shall be used.
For products with a nominal thickness > 10 mm the following proportional test pieces may be used:
- either a flat test piece with a maximum thickness of 30 mm, the thickness may be reduced to 10 mm by machining but one rolled surface shall be preserved;
- or a round test piece with a diameter of ≥ 5 mm, the axis of which shall be located as near as possible to a plane in the outer third of half the product thickness.

^b The longitudinal axis of the notch shall always be perpendicular to the rolled surface of the product.

^c For impact test pieces for nominal plate thicknesses ≤ 12 mm, see 10.2.2.3.

^d In case of nominal product thickness greater than 30 mm, the impact test piece may be taken at quarter of the product thickness.

11 Test methods

11.1 Chemical analysis

Unless otherwise agreed at the time of enquiry and order, the choice of a suitable physical or chemical analytical method for the product analysis shall be at the discretion of the manufacturer. In cases of dispute, the analysis shall be carried out by a laboratory approved by both parties. In this case, the analysis method to be used shall be agreed taking into account the relevant existing European Standards. The list of available European Standards is given in CEN/TR 10261.

11.2 Tensile test at room temperature

11.2.1 For the steels of EN 10028‑2:2017 to EN 10028‑6:2017 the tensile test at room temperature shall be carried out in accordance with EN ISO 6892‑1, generally using a proportional test piece of gauge length L₀ = 5,65√S₀ (S₀: initial cross‑sectional area of the test piece). Test pieces with a constant gauge length may be used; in this case, the elongation value shall be converted in accordance with EN ISO 2566‑1 for the steels of EN 10028‑2:2017 to EN 10028‑6:2017.

The tensile strength R_m, the elongation after fracture A and the yield strength shall be determined. The yield strength to be determined shall be the upper yield strength R_eH or, wherever this is not pronounced, the 0,2 % proof strength R_p0,2.

11.2.2 For the steels of EN 10028‑7:2016 the tensile test at room temperature shall be carried out in accordance with EN ISO 6892‑1 taking into account the additional or deviating conditions specified in Table 5. For non‑proportional test pieces, the elongation values shall be converted in accordance with EN ISO 2566‑2. The tensile strength and elongation after fracture shall be determined and additionally for ferritic, martensitic and austenitic‑ferritic steels the 0,2 % proof strength and for austenitic steels the 0,2 % and 1,0 % proof strength.

In cases of dispute and where permitted (see 10.2.2.2 c)) the tensile test shall be carried out on circular test pieces.

11.3 Tensile test at elevated temperature

R_p0,2 values at elevated temperature (for austenitic steels in accordance with EN 10028‑7:2016 additionally R_m and/or R_p1,0 values) shall be determined in accordance with EN ISO 6892‑2.

Unless a test temperature for which a value is specified for the relevant product has been agreed at the time of enquiry and order, the test shall be carried out at 300°C except for austenitic‑ferritic steels of EN 10028‑7:2016 for which the test shall be carried out at 250°C.

11.4 Impact test

The impact test shall be carried out in accordance with EN ISO 148‑1 on V‑notched pieces and by using a 2 mm striker (KV₂). The specifications of the individual parts of EN 10028 shall apply.

Where minimum impact energy values are specified for several temperatures, verification of the impact energy, unless otherwise agreed, shall be carried out at the temperature for which the value of 27 J is specified.

Where the minimum impact energy value specified at the lowest temperature is higher than 27 J, this higher value shall be verified.

The impact energy values apply to transverse test pieces for the steel grades specified in EN 10028‑2:2017, EN 10028‑5:2017 and EN 10028‑6:2017 and for longitudinal and/or transverse test pieces for the steel grades specified in EN 10028‑3:2017, EN 10028‑4:2017 and EN 10028‑7:2016.

12 Marking

12.1 The products shall be legibly marked using methods such as painting, stamping, laser marking, bar coding, durable adhesive labels or attached tags with the following:

the manufacturer's name, trade mark or logo;
the number of this European Standard;
the steel name or number;
an identification number which permits the cast to be traced;
the nominal dimensions.

12.2 Any other marking may be agreed at the time of enquiry and order (see also Table 6).
