BS EN 10149-2:2013

What is BS EN 10149-2 - Thermomechanically rolled steels about? 

BS EN 10149-2 provides a set of guidelines with technical delivery conditions for thermomechanically rolled sheets for hot rolled products made of high yield strength steels for cold forming.

BS EN 10149-2 in addition to EN 10149-1, specifies requirements for flat products made of weldable, hot-rolled, high yield strength steels for cold forming.

The steels specified in BS EN 10149-2 standard are applicable to hot-rolled flat products in the thickness range of:

• 1,5 mm to 20 mm for the steels which have a specified minimum yield strength of 315 MPa1) up to and including 460 MPa1);
• 1,5 mm to 16 mm for the steels which have a specified minimum yield strength of 500 MPa1) up to and including 700 MPa1); and
• from 2 mm up to 10 mm for the steels with a minimum yield stress in the range from 900 MPa1) to 960 MPa1).

Who is BS EN 10149-2- Thermomechanically rolled steels for? 

BS EN 10149-2 on Thermomechanically rolled steels is useful for: 

• Vehicle manufacturers
• Home appliance manufacturers
• Construction engineers
• Ship builders
• Agricultural Equipment manufacturers
• Steel plants

Why should you use BS EN 10149-2 - Thermomechanically rolled steels?  

The purpose of thermomechanical is to reduce the ingot size for the cooling and hot process. To cool a sheet under controlled environment thermomechanical procedure is necessary.

BS EN 10149-2 guidelines are for the steel plants and manufacturers to know about the technical delivery conditions for thermomechanically rolled sheets for hot rolled products made of high yield strength steels for cold forming.

BS EN 10149-2 is useful for the buyers of equipment and appliances and use it for long perio of time.
