DIN EN 10027 – Designation systems for steels – Part 2 specifies a numbering system for the designation of steel grades.
About the standard
It deals with the structure of steel numbers and the organization for their registration, allocation and dissemination. This document is the second Part of the standard Designation systems for steels, the first Part being "Steel names". The steel numbers given here are complementary to steel names set out in EN 10027-1, and, with a fixed number of digits, are better suited for data processing.
The standard is applicable to steels specified in European Standards, but may also be applied to national steels and proprietary steels. Although the scope of the systems is limited to steel, it is structured so as to be capable of being extended to include other industrially produced materials.
This document replaces DIN EN 10027-2:1992-09 .
