Stahl und Eisen: Gütenormen 5

Steel and Iron: Quality standards 5
Stainless and other high-alloy steels

(Please note: This product is only available in German.)

The possible applications of steel and iron are enormously diverse, and the standards in this specialized field are correspondingly wide-ranging. They cover the various aspects of steels and iron and provide professionals with the necessary knowledge and requirements to work in accordance with standards.

This book “Steel and Iron: "Quality Standards 5”, in its 5th edition, provides 21 current documents on the subject, many of which are included in revised versions. DIN Taschenbuch 405 contains a large number of standards on technical delivery conditions. The areas covered include

• Round and flat wires, rods and wires
• Heat resisting steels and nickel alloys
• Welded and seamless steel tubes
• Steel castings
• Materials for surgical implants
• Stainless steels

In addition, DIN Taschenbuch 405 contains a list of standards from the steel and iron industry with references to comparable standards.
 

Many important changes in the quality standards

Technical delivery conditions and other specifications, such as those compiled in this compendium of standards, facilitate trade and high quality; having them at hand at all times is of great importance to professionals. This DIN Taschenbuch 405 impresses with its compact format and, thanks to the index, allows you to find specific topics quickly — even in this almost 700-page volume.

In the 7th edition of “Steel and Iron: Quality standard 5” the following changes have been made:

• 8 revised standards
  The list of stainless steels — DIN EN 10088-1 — has been expanded to include a whole series of new austenitic, austenitic-ferritic, ferritic and martensitic steels; existing compositions have been updated and other steels have been deleted. Further changes were made, for example, to DIN EN 10095 on heat resisting steels and nickel alloys: a number of important replacements were made here. DIN EN 10283 on corrosion resistant steel castings and DIN EN ISO 5832-1 on metallic materials for implants have also been updated; the standard has been given a number of new and updated requirements. A total of 8 documents have been revised, expanded and supplemented.

This comprehensive work provides the steel processing industry with information for professional practice and, together with the other volumes on the subject (DIN Taschenbuch 28 and the DIN Taschenbuch series 401 to 404), represents an irreplaceable foundation for working.
