Overview
OSIST prEN 10338:2004 specifies the technical delivery conditions for hot rolled and cold rolled non-coated flat products of multiphase steels designed for cold forming applications. Issued by the Slovenian Institute for Standardization (SIST), this European Standard addresses products with a thickness of up to and including 3 mm. By mutual agreement, the standard may also cover hot rolled flat products with thicknesses greater than 3 mm, provided mechanical properties and tolerances are clarified at order.
Multipurpose non-coated flat steel products addressed by this standard are typically delivered in various forms, such as sheet, wide strip, slit wide strip, or cut lengths from slit wide strip, meeting the demands of industries requiring excellent formability and strength characteristics.
Key Topics
Scope of Application
- Hot rolled and cold rolled non-coated flat products for cold forming
- Thickness specification: ≤ 3 mm (with optional extension beyond 3 mm upon agreement)
Product Forms
- Delivered as sheet, wide strip, slit wide strip, or cut lengths
Technical Delivery Conditions
- Requirements for material properties, delivery state, and order agreement parameters
- Conditions for mechanical properties and thickness tolerances for products over 3 mm
Material Type
- Multiphase steels for improved cold forming performance
Order and Agreement Procedures
- Agreement at enquiry and order stage for special product requirements
Applications
Non-coated multiphase steel flat products covered by OSIST prEN 10338:2004 are essential in sectors where high strength, ductility, and cold formability are required. Key practical applications include:
Automotive Industry
- Manufacturing of structural automotive components, body-in-white panels, reinforcements, and safety structures requiring superior strength-to-weight ratios and formability
Appliance and White Goods
- Use in the fabrication of durable, formable panels and internal structures for appliances
Construction and Engineering
- Production of components in building and infrastructure where robust, formable steel is needed
General Cold Forming Processes
- Suitable for stamping, bending, roll forming, and deep drawing operations
The use of multiphase steels helps manufacturers achieve advanced performance requirements while maintaining efficient production processes and reducing overall component weight.
