1 Scope
Part 2 of this document, in addition to Part 1, specifies the technical delivery conditions for flat and long
products and semi-finished products which are meant for further processing to flat and long products of hot
rolled non-alloy quality steels in the grades and qualities given in Tables 2 to 6 (chemical composition) and
Tables 7 to 9 (mechanical properties) in the delivery conditions as given in 6.3. Three engineering steels are
also specified in this document (see Tables 3 and 5) (chemical composition) and Table 8 (mechanical
properties). This document does not apply to structural hollow sections and tubes (see EN 10210-1 and
EN 10219-1).
The technical delivery conditions apply to thicknesses ≥ 3 mm and ≤ 150 mm for long products of steel grade
S450J0. The technical delivery conditions apply to thicknesses ≤ 250 mm for flat and long products of all other
grades and qualities. In addition for flat products of qualities J2 and K2 the technical conditions apply to
thicknesses ≤ 400 mm.
Products made of steel grades S185, E295, E335 and E360 cannot be CE marked.
The steels specified in this Part 2 are not intended to be heat treated except products delivered in delivery
condition +N. Stress relief annealing is permitted (see also the NOTE in 7.3.1.1 of EN 10025-1:2004).
Products delivered in +N condition can be hot formed and/or normalized after delivery (see Clause 3).
NOTE 1 Semi-finished products which are to be converted to rolled finished products conforming to this document
should be the subject of special agreement at the time of the enquiry and order. The chemical composition can also be
agreed at the time of the order, however the values should be within the limits of Tables 2 and 3.
NOTE 2 For certain grades and product forms suitability for particular applications may be specified at the time of the
enquiry and order (see 7.4.2, 7.4.3 and Table 10).

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 10025-1:2004 and the following
apply.
3.1
normalizing rolling
rolling process in which the final deformation is carried out in a certain temperature range leading to a material
condition equivalent to that obtained after normalizing so that the specified values of the mechanical
properties are retained even after normalizing
The abbreviated form of this delivery condition is +N
NOTE In international publications for both the normalizing rolling, as well as the thermo-mechanical rolling, the
expression “controlled rolling” may be found. However in view of the different applicability of the products a distinction of
the terms is necessary.
3.2
as-rolled
delivery condition without any special rolling and/or heat treatment condition.
The abbreviated form of this delivery condition is +AR
3.3
thermomechanical rolling
rolling process in which the final deformation is carried out in a certain temperature range leading to a material
condition with certain properties which cannot be achieved or repeated by heat treatment alone
NOTE 1 Subsequent heating above 580 °C may lower the strength values. If temperatures above 580 °C are needed
reference should be made to the supplier.
NOTE 2 Thermomechanical rolling leading to the delivery condition M can include processes with an increasing cooling
rate with or without tempering including self-tempering but excluding direct quenching and quenching and tempering.
NOTE 3 In some publications the word TMCP (Thermomechanical Control Process) is also used.

7 Requirements
7.1 General
The following requirements apply when sampling, preparation of test pieces and testing specified in Clauses 8,
9 and 10 are carried out.
7.2 Chemical composition
7.2.1 The chemical composition determined by ladle analysis shall comply with the specified values of
Tables 2 and 3.
7.2.2 The upper limits applicable for the product analysis are given in Tables 4 and 5.
The product analysis shall be carried out when specified at the time of the order.
See option 2.
7.2.3 The maximum carbon equivalent values for the grades S235, S275, S355 and S450,
based on the ladle analysis, given in Table 6 shall apply. For the carbon equivalent value formula see
7.2.3 of EN 10025-1:2004.
7.2.4 For all S235, S275 and S355 qualities the following additional chemical requirement can be
agreed at the time of the order:
− Copper-content between 0,25 % and 0,40 % on ladle analysis and between 0,20 % and 0,45 % on product
analysis. In this case the maximum carbon equivalent value of Table 6 shall be increased by 0,02 %.
See option 20.
7.2.5 When products of grade S275 and S355 are supplied with a control on Si e.g. for hot-dip zinccoating
so that there could be a need to increase the content of other elements like C and Mn to achieve the
required tensile properties, the maximum carbon equivalent values of Table 6 shall be increased as follows:
− for Si ≤ 0,030 %, increase CEV by 0,02 %;
− for Si ≤ 0,25 %, increase CEV by 0,01 %.
7.3 Mechanical properties
7.3.1 General
7.3.1.1 Under the inspection and testing conditions as specified in Clauses 8, 9 and 10 and in the
delivery condition as specified in 6.3 the mechanical properties shall comply with the values given in Tables 7,
8 and 9.
7.3.1.2 For products ordered and supplied in the normalized or normalized rolled condition (see 6.3) the
mechanical properties shall comply with Tables 7, 8 and 9 in the normalized or normalized rolled condition as
well as after normalizing by heat treatment after delivery.
7.3.1.3 For products supplied as-rolled for normalizing by the purchaser the samples shall be
normalized, if requested at the time of the order. The values obtained from the normalized samples shall
comply with this document. The results shall be reported in the inspection document.
NOTE The results of these tests do not represent the properties of the supplied products but indicate the properties
which can be achieved after correct normalizing.
EN 10025-2:2004 (E)
11
7.3.1.4 For flat products the nominal thickness applies. For long products of irregular section the nominal
thickness of that part from which the samples are taken applies (see Annex A of EN 10025-1:2004).
7.3.2 Impact properties
7.3.2.1 The verification of the impact energy value shall be carried out in accordance with EN 10025-1.
7.3.2.2 The impact properties of quality JR products are verified only when specified at the time of the
order.
See option 3.
7.3.2.3 For products of quality J2 and K2 with nominal thickness < 6 mm the ferritic grain size shall be ≥ 6, verified by the method as described in EN ISO 643, if specified at the time of the order. See option 21. When aluminum is used as the grain refining element, the grain size requirement shall be deemed to be fulfilled if on ladle analysis the aluminum content is not less than 0,020 % total aluminum or alternatively, 0,015 % acid soluble aluminum. In this case verification of the grain size is not required, but the aluminum content shall be indicated in the inspection document. 7.3.3 Improved deformation properties perpendicular to the surface If agreed at the time of the order products of qualities J2 and K2 shall comply with one of the requirements of EN 10164. See option 4. 7.4 Technological properties 7.4.1 Weldability 7.4.1.1 General requirements for welding of the steels of the qualities JR, J0, J2 and K2 shall be given in EN 1011-2. NOTE With increasing product thickness and strength level cold cracking can occur. Cold cracking is caused by the following factors in combination: − the amount of diffusible hydrogen in the weld metal; − a brittle structure of the heat affected zone; − significant tensile stress concentrations in the welded joint. 7.4.1.2 This document gives no information concerning the weldability of the steel grades S185, E295, E335 and E360 because the chemical composition is not specified. 7.4.2 Formability NOTE Recommendations regarding hot and cold forming are laid down in ECSC IC 2. Although ECSC IC2 is specially meant for fine grain steels, these recommendations can also apply for the steel grades of EN 10025-2:2004. 7.4.2.1 Hot forming Only products ordered and supplied in the normalized or normalized rolled condition shall comply with the requirements of Tables 7, 8 and 9 if hot forming is carried out after delivery (see 7.3.1.2). EN 10025-2:2004 (E) 12 7.4.2.2 Cold formability 7.4.2.2.1 General Grades and qualities suitable for cold forming and engineering steels suitable for cold drawing shall be designated by the appropriate steel name (including symbol C or GC) or the appropriate steel number as indicated in Tables 10 to 13 (see 4.2.2). NOTE Cold forming leads to reduction in the ductility. Furthermore it is necessary to draw the attention to the risk of brittle fracture in connection with hot-dip zinc-coating. 7.4.2.2.2 Flangeability If specified at the time of the order plate, sheet, strip, wide flats and flats (width < 150 mm) with a nominal thickness ≤ 30 mm shall be suitable for flanging without cracking with the minimum recommended bend radii given in Table 12. The grades and qualities to which this applies are given in Table 10. See option 11. 7.4.2.2.3 Roll forming If specified at the time of the order plate, sheet and strip with a nominal thickness ≤ 8 mm shall be suitable for the production of sections by cold rolling (for example according to EN 10162). The suitability is applicable for bend radii given in Table 13. The grades and qualities concerned are given in Table 10. See option 12. 7.4.2.2.4 Drawing of bars If specified at the time of the order, bars shall be suitable for cold drawing. The grades and qualities to which this applies are given in Tables 10 and 11. See option 22. 7.4.3 Suitability for hot-dip zinc-coating Hot-dip zinc-coating requirements shall be agreed between manufacturer and purchaser. EN ISO 1461 and EN ISO 14713 should be used to set these coating requirements. The definition of suitability classes based upon chemical analysis limitations as laid down in Table 1 can be used for guidance purposes. Table 1 – Classes for the suitability for hot-dip zinc-coating based on the ladle analysis (for guidance) Classes Elements % by mass Si Si + 2,5 P P Class 1 ≤ 0,030 ≤ 0,090 – Class 2 a ≤ 0,35 – – Class 3 0,14 ≤ Si ≤ 0,25 – ≤ 0,035 a Class 2 applies only for special zinc alloys. EN 10025-2:2004 (E) 13 For class 1 the maximum carbon equivalent value of Table 6 shall be increased by 0,02. For class 3 the maximum carbon equivalent value of Table 6 shall be increased by 0,01. These increases apply for S275 and S355 (see 7.2.5). See option 5. NOTE Product shape, composition of the zinc bath, other hot-dip treatment settings and other factors should be considered when agreeing upon hot-dip zinc-coating requirements. 7.4.4 Machinability All steel grades and qualities are machinable with common operations. NOTE Due to the good ductility of qualities JR, J0, J2 and K2 problems can occur in the chip formation and in surface finish quality. Generally a higher S content improves machinability. A proper Ca treatment applicable for long products gives better machining properties (see footnote e of Table 2 and footnote c of Table 3). 7.5 Surface properties 7.5.1 Strip The surface condition should not impair an application appropriate to the steel grade if adequate processing of the strip is applied. 7.5.2 Plates and wide flats EN 10163 parts 1 and 2 shall apply for the permissible surface discontinuities and for the repair of surface defects by grinding and/or welding.
