BS EN 10139 applies to a cold-rolled narrow strip in coils and cut lengths in thicknesses up to 10 mm and of widths less than 600 mm, made from low carbon, unalloyed and alloyed steels.
These products are suitable for cold forming. They are also suitable for surface coating. On the other hand, they are not suitable for hardening treatment followed by tempering.
BS EN 10139 does not cover cold-rolled flat products for which a separate standard already exists, particularly the following products:
BS EN 10139 on low carbon steel narrow strip for cold forming is beneficial for:
Cold forming or cold working is any metalworking process in which a forging technique used is to shape metal materials.
BS EN 10139 provides guidelines on the steel making process and chemical composition, mechanical and technological properties, surface characteristics, test methods to be followed for cold rolling uncoated low carbon steel narrow strip for cold forming.
As a user of BS EN 10139, you get proper guidelines and information on how to manufacture and cold-rolled d rolled uncoated low carbon steel narrow strip. It assists the user to produce high-quality cold-rolled products. BS EN 10139 helps the user to protect the product from corrosion and increase its service life.
