Stainless steel standards come together on CD-ROM

A BSI British Standards product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Feb 20, 2006

A collection of essential stainless steel standards is available on a single CD-ROM, including all three available parts of BS EN10088 "Stainless steels".

BSI Business Information has just published a collection of essential stainless steel standards on one CD-ROM to include all three available parts of BS EN10088 "Stainless steels".

Industry uses the series to quality check the stainless steel specified to ensure products meet the high quality standards demanded by customers.

With the three standards now available together in one convenient place, steel professionals will find it easier to access the information essential to their work by using its search facility.

Part 1 lists the chemical compositions of stainless steels (including a table of European Standards, in which these stainless steels are further specified).

They are subdivided in accordance with their main properties, into corrosion resisting steels, heat resisting steels and creep resisting steels.

Part 2 specifies the technical delivery conditions for hot or cold rolled sheet/plate and strip of standard grades and special grades of corrosion resisting stainless steels for general purposes.

Also includes the use of flat stainless steel products including cutlery and other products in contact with foodstuffs.

Part 3 details technical delivery conditions for semifinished products, hot or cold formed bars, rods, wire, sections and bright products of standard and special grades of corrosion resisting stainless steels for general purposes.

The CD-ROM is priced at GBP 250 plus VAT, or GBP 125 plus VAT to BSI Subscribing Members.

Parts 4 (flat products) and 5 (long products) of BS EN10088 are now in preparation to cover material for construction purposes.

When Parts 4 and 5 become available they will be harmonised with the Construction Products Directive.

A new edition of the CD containing all 5 parts of BS EN10088 will also be published when parts 4 and 5 are available.

Customers who have purchased the earlier three-part version will be able to buy the five-part CD at a discount.
