European Dimensional Tolerance Standard for Stainless Steel
The Europe-wide dimensional tolerance standard for flat rolled stainless steel products are as follows:
EN 10029 Hot rolled stainless steel plates 3mm thick or above - Tolerances on dimensions shape and mass (i.e.quarto plate)
EN 10048 Hot rolled narrow stainless steel strip - Tolerances on dimensions and shape (i.e. hot rolled narrow strip)
EN 10051 Continuously hot rolled uncoated plate, sheet and strip of non-alloy and alloy steel - Tolerances on dimensions and shape (i.e. continuously hot rolled strip)
EN 10258 Cold rolled stainless steel narrow strip and cut lengths - Tolerances on dimensions and shape (i.e. cold rolled narrow strip)
EN 10259 Cold rolled stainless steel wide strip and plate/sheet - Tolerances on dimensions and shape (i.e. cold rolled wide strip)
This set of standard is part of the ongoing process of replacing member state national standard in order to develop the European Union single market. British Standard replaced were unusual in having the dimensional tolerance requirements within each product standard, whereas the EN tolerance standards apply to all appropriate product standard and will be referenced there.
