European foreword
This document (EN 10265:2024) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 459/SC 8 “Steel
sheet and strip for electrical applications”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2025, and conflicting national standards shall be
withdrawn at the latest by May 2025.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document supersedes EN 10265:1995.
In comparison with the previous edition EN 10265:1995, the following technical modifications have been
made:
— the title of the document has been amended;
— to take into account the revision of the geometrical characterization of EN 10251;
— to include the residual curvature for sheets regarding the internal coil diameter for hot-rolled grades;
— to clarify in the surface condition text how precautions against oxidation can be taken;
— to include in the technical requirements too higher strength new cold-rolled grades;
— to rationalize the tables in the geometrical characteristics and tolerances;
— to clarify the density to be used for the magnetic measurements;
— to reduce the minimum number of Epstein test strips for the magnetic property measurement;
— to add a paragraph on the marking, labelling and packaging;
— to add a clarification on the information to be supplied by the purchaser.
Any feedback and questions on this document should be directed to the users’ national standards body.
A complete listing of these bodies can be found on the CEN website.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia,
Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland,
Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Republic of North
Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Türkiye and the United
Kingdom.
1 Scope
This document defines the grades of electrical steel strip and sheet with specified mechanical properties
and magnetic polarization. It specifies general requirements, mechanical properties, magnetic
polarization, geometric characteristics, tolerances and technological characteristics, as well as inspection
procedures.
This document applies to electrical steel strip and sheet for the construction of poles and rims of rotating
electrical machines.
The grades are grouped into two classes according to their manufacturing process:
— hot-rolled grades;
— cold-rolled grades.
NOTE These materials correspond to EN 60404-1:2017, D.2.
