This European Standard was approved by CEN on 12 April 2021.

CEN members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this
European Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration. Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references
concerning such national standards may be obtained on application to the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre or to any CEN
member.

This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other language made by
translation under the responsibility of a CEN member into its own language and notified to the CEN-CENELEC Management
Centre has the same status as the official versions.

European foreword
This document (EN 10250-4:2021) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 459/SC 11
“Steel castings and forgings”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
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 November 2021, and conflicting national standards
shall be withdrawn at the latest by November 2021.
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 10250-4:1999.
In comparison with the previous edition, the following technical modifications have been made:
— addition of EN 10028-7 after EN 10088-3 in the note of the Scope;
— removal of EN 10021 and EN 10088-3 from the Normative references;
— addition of Clause 3, Terms and definitions;
— restructuration of Clause 4, Chemical composition;
— introduction of three steel grades in Table 2: X1CrNi25-21, X1CrNiSi18–15–4 and
X2CrNiMnMoN25–18–6-5;
— alignment of silicon characteristics with EN 10088-3 in Table 4;
— addition of 2 columns on resistance to intergranular corrosion in Tables 6 and 7;
— introduction of footnotes in Tables of Annex A;
— deletion of Annex C, Elevated temperature proof strength.
The EN 10250 series, Open die steel forgings for general engineering purposes, consists of the following
parts:
— Part 1: General requirements;
— Part 2: Non-alloy quality and special steels;
— Part 3: Alloy special steels;
— Part 4: Stainless steels.
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,

1 Scope
This document specifies the technical delivery requirements for open die forgings, forged bars and
products pre-forged and finished in ring rolling mills, manufactured from stainless steels with ferritic,
martensitic, austenitic and austenitic-ferritic structures.
NOTE The majority of steels listed in this part of EN 10250 are identical to steels specified EN 10088-3 and
EN 10028-7, and more extensive information on properties is given in these European Standards.
General information on technical delivery conditions is given in EN 10021.
2 Normative references
The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content
constitutes requirements of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For
undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

3 Terms and definitions
No terms and definitions are listed in this document.
ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:

4 Chemical composition
4.1 Cast analysis
The chemical composition of the steel shall be determined by cast analysis and shall conform to the
analysis given in Tables 1, 2 and 3 (see A.7, A.8, and A.11 of EN 10250-1:1999).
Elements not quoted in Tables 1, 2, and 3 shall not be added intentionally to the steel without the
agreement of the purchaser, except for the purpose of finishing the heat. All reasonable measures
should also be taken to prevent the addition from the scrap, or other material used in the manufacture
of the steel, of such elements which affect the corrosion resistance, mechanical properties and
applicability of the steel.
4.2 Product analysis
The product analysis shall not deviate from the specified cast analysis (see Tables 1, 2 and 3) by more
than the values specified in Table 4 (see 9.2 of EN 10250-1:1999).
4.3 Chemical corrosion properties
Referring to resistance to intergranular corrosion as defined in EN ISO 3651-2, for austenitic, austenitic-
ferritic and ferritic stainless steels the specifications in Tables 6 and 7 apply.
NOTE 1 EN ISO 3651-2 is not applicable for testing martensitic and precipitation hardening steels.
NOTE 2 The corrosion resistance of stainless steels is very dependent on the type of environment and can
therefore not always be clearly ascertained through laboratory tests. It is therefore advisable to draw on the
available experience of the use of the steels.
