EN 10257-2 - 85 - 2,24 Zn EN 10244-2:2009, class A. 6 Manufacture 6.1 Non-alloy steel The steel wire shall be cold drawn from plain carbon steel rod produced to EN ISO 16120-1, EN ISO 16120-2 or EN ISO 16120-3 and capable of achievi

25、ng the physical properties required by this standard.

Such a weld shall not be less than 100 m from either en

26、d of the coil. No weld shall be made after drawing on grades 85, 105, 125, 145 and 165. DIN EN 10257-2:2012-02 EN 10257-2:2011 (E) 6 7 Requirements 7.1 Mechanical properties 7.1.1 Tensile strength The tensile strength of the wires measured on the actual diameter shall be as given in Table 1 for the

27、appropriate grade.

NOTE 2 If tensile stre

28、ngth minima are ordered other than those specified and the tensile strength of the ordered grade is less than or equal to 100 N/mm2above the minimum tensile strength of the nearest lower specified grade then the properties of that grade shall apply. If the minimum tensile strength of the required gr

29、ade is more than 100 N/mm2above the minimum tensile strength of the nearest lower specified grade then the higher grade properties shall apply. 7.1.2 Elongation Elongation measured after fracture shall be not less than that given in Tables 2, 3 or 4 for the grade and diameter of wire being tested. 7

30、.1.3 Torsion When tested in accordance with 10.3.1, the wire shall withstand without breaking not less than the minimum number of turns given in Tables 2, 3 and 4 for the wire being tested. 7.1.4 Steel ductility wrap test When subjected to a steel ductility wrap test, test samples of grade 85, 105,

31、125, or 145 shall withstand being closely wrapped by 8 turns around their own diameter. A test sample of grade 165 shall withstand being closely wrapped around two times its own diameter. No sign of fracture of the base metal shall be evident. 7.2 Nominal diameters and tolerances The preferred nomin

32、al diameters of finished wire and the tolerances on diameter shall be as specified in Tables 2, 3 and 4, depending on the tensile grades. DIN EN 10257-2:2012-02 EN 10257-2:2011 (E) 7 The tolerances correspond to T1 of EN 10218-2:1996, Table 1. It is recognized that thick coatings, obtained in the ho

33、t dip process, may not be entirely free from surface irregularities, and, provided the latter do not go beyond the limits of good practice (i.e. isolated and not of a repetitive nature), they shall not be a cause for rejection. Persistent lumpy galvanizing or bambooing shall be cause for rejection.

NOTE 1 For intermediate sizes the properties to be achieved shall be those for the next larger si

36、ze listed. NOTE 2 Grade 34 steel wire may in time exhibit changes in mechanical properties after manufacture, particularly tensile strength and elongation. These changes result from a phenomenon known as strain ageing or strain age hardening, and lead to an increase in tensile strength and a decreas

37、e in elongation, compared to the wire immediately after coating with zinc. It is customary to carry out tests immediately after manufacture. At ordinary temperatures, strain ageing may proceed slowly. Therefore, results of tests performed by the purchaser may be at variance with those reported by th

38、e supplier.

44、ish The wire shall be zinc or zinc alloy coated either by the hot dip or the electrolytic process, in accordance with EN 10244-2:2009 (Table 1 and Table 2), class A. The coating shall conform to the adherence test of EN 10244-1 and EN 10244-2. If required, the uniformity shall conform to EN 10244-2.

45、 NOTE The finished wire should be free from any defects likely to cause breakages in subsequent manufacturing processes or service, or likely to adversely affect the finished cables. The wire is usually supplied as zinc or zinc alloy coated. Additionally further coatings with a special finish (e.g.

46、wax or surface compatible with bitumen) may be supplied by agreement between manufacturer and customer. 8 Sampling and testing The manufacturer shall be responsible for the control of product quality by the application of statistical methods of sampling and analysis of results or, alternatively, by

47、sampling and testing for the agreed quality characteristics at a rate of one roll/reel in 50. 9 Inspection and documentation Unless otherwise agreed at time of enquiry and order, non-specific testing and inspection and inspection documentation shall be provided according to the requirements of EN 10

48、204 and EN 10021. 10 Methods of test 10.1 Diameter measurement The diameter of the zinc or zinc alloy coated test piece shall be determined with a micrometer by taking two measurements at right angles to each other at three places, choosing smooth zones, along a length of not less than 250 mm. The a

49、verage of the six measurements shall be taken as the actual diameter of the galvanized wire test piece. 10.2 Tensile and elongation tests 10.2.1 The test shall be carried out in accordance with EN 10218-1, with a test length between the grips sufficient to accommodate a gauge length of 250 mm. 10.2.2 The tensile strength shall be calculated on the actual diameter of the coated wir
