European foreword
This document (EN 10253-2:2021/prA1:2024) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 459
“ECISS - European Committee for Iron and Steel Standardization” , the secretariat of which is held by
AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document has been prepared under a standardization request addressed to CEN by the European
Commission. The Standing Committee of the EFTA States subsequently approves these requests for its
Member States.
For the relationship with EU Legislation, see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this
document.
EN 10253 comprises a series of European Standards about Butt-welding pipe fittings, namely:
— Part 1: Wrought carbon steel for general use and without specific inspection requirements;
— Part 2: Non alloy and ferritic alloy steels with specific inspection requirements;
— Part 3: Wrought austenitic and austenitic-ferritic (duplex) stainless steels without specific inspection
requirements;
— Part 4: Wrought austenitic and austenitic-ferritic (duplex) stainless steels with specific inspection
requirements.
Through its sub-committee CEN/TC 459/SC 10 “Steel tubes, and iron and steel fittings” (secretariat: UNI).
