Tolerances
Tolerances for wide strip and slit wide strip comply with standard EN 10051: 2010.
Tighter tolerances are available, please contact us.
EN-Product-Hot-rolled-All grades Shape and dimensional tolerances TSUK
Shape and dimensional tolerances
The specified values for wide strip do not apply to the uncropped ends of the coil (‘head’ and ‘tail’). The length of these uncropped ends is calculated using the following formula:
length (in metres) = 90/nominal thickness (in mm), with a maximum of 20 metres.
If required, this part of the coil can be removed, however an additional cost may be charged for this.

Tolerances in mm for wide strip and slit wide strip
The tolerances for wide strip and slit wide strip comply with standard EN 10051:2010.
The specified values for wide strip do not apply to the uncropped ends of the coil (‘head’ and ‘tail’). The length of these uncropped ends is calculated using the following formula:
length (in metres) = 90/nominal thickness (in mm), with a maximum of 20 metres.
If required, this part of the coil can be removed, however an additional cost may be charged for this.
Edge camber
The deviation from the edge over a length of 5000mm:
• with mill edges, no more than 20mm
• with trimmed edges, no more than 15mm
Flatness
Requirements as regards flatness can be agreed at the time of enquiry.
