This European Standard specifies tolerances on dimensions and shape for continuously hot-rolled uncoated plate/sheet and strip with a maximum width of 2 200 mm of non-alloy and alloy steels in accordance with Table 1 (see also Annex A). This European Standard also applies to hot-rolled strip for cold rolling.
