Material condition for the product as manufactured, without specified mechanical properties; R. Material condition designated by the minimum value of tensile strength requirement for the product with mandatory tensile property requirements; H. Material condition designated by the minimum value of hardness requirement for the product with mandatory hardness requirements; S (suffix) Material condition for a product which is stress relieved. NOTE Products in the M, R… or H… condition may be specially processed (i.e. mechanically or thermally stress relieved) in order to lower the residual stress level to improve the resistance to stress corrosion and the dimensional stability on machining [see 5 k), 5 l) and 8.5]. Exact conversion between material conditions designated R. and H. is not possible. Except when the suffix S is used, material condition is designated by only one of the above designations. 4.3 Product The product designation provides a standardized pattern of designation from which a rapid and unequivocal description of a product is conveyed in communication. It provides mutual comprehension at the international level with regard to products which meet the requirements of the relevant European Standard. The product designation is no substitute for the full content of the standard.
