BS EN 10111:2008
Continuously hot rolled low carbon steel sheet and strip for cold forming. Technical delivery conditions.


BS EN 10111 is the European standard that specifies the grades of continuously hot rolled low carbon steel sheet and strip (in coils) for cold forming.

Depending on its actual width, strip is classified as:

  • Hot rolled wide strip if its width is greater than or equal to 600 mm
  • Hot rolled slit wide strip if its width is less than 600 mm.

For each grade, it specifies the chemical composition and the mechanical properties.

BS EN 10111 is applicable to products of thickness not less than 1,0 mm and not exceeding 11 mm.
