PART 1 COLD FORMING AND DRAWING PURPOSE
(SEVENTH REVISION OF IS 513)
Not to be reproduced without the permission of BIS Last date for received of
or used as STANDARD comments 07 November 2016
_________________________________________________________________________________
FOREWORD
With the constant requirement of greater, stringent and varied requirements for steel sheets and strips
for automobile industry and engineering applications, many specifications were made. An endeavour
is made by Bureau of Indian Standards to identify, summarize and create a new standard. An attempt
is made to cover all such requirements of Automobile and Engineering application under a single
standard. However, interested parties as per their requirement may apply more stringent requirement
against any clause in this standard or specify other characteristics not covered by this standard.
In the present version following modifications are made:
a) New designations and grades are added
b) Existing standard is divided into two parts, based on the strength level
c) Correlation of old designation with new designations and grades has been given for
information (Annex A)
Assistance has been derived from the following.
ISO 3574 - Cold reduced carbon steel sheet for commercial and drawing qualities
EN 10268 - Cold rolled steel flat products with high yield strength for cold forming
JFS A 2001 - Cold-rolled steel sheet and strip for automobile use
JIS G 3135- Cold reduced high strength steel sheet and strip with improved formability for
automobile structural uses
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with the
final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis shall be rounded off in
accordance with IS2:1960 ―Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised)’. The number of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value
in this standard.
1 SCOPE
This standard covers the requirements of cold reduced carbon steel sheets and strips for cold forming
and drawing purposeand where the surface is of prime importance. It covers sheets and strips upto
4.0 mm thick both in coil form and cut lengths.

9 SURFACE FINISH
9.1 Cold Reduced Steel Sheetand Strip
This product is normally supplied skin passed (see9.2), but may be supplied annealed last
(that is without skin pass), if specified by the purchaser before placing the order.
9.2 Skin Pass
The purpose of skin passing is one or more the following:
a) To temporarily minimize the appearance of coil breaks, stretcher strains (Luder
lines) or fluting during fabrication of finished parts;
b) To obtain the required surface finish suitable for ordinary decorative painting; and
c) To control the shape.
Some increase in hardness and some loss in ductility will result from skin passing.
9.3 Strain Ageing
Cold reduced sheet and strip in qualities CR1, CR2, CR3 supplied in skin-passed condition
tends to strain age and this may lead to the following:
a) Surface markings from stretcher strains (Luder lines) or fluting when the steel is
formed; and
b) Deterioration in ductility.
Because of these factors, it is essential that the period between final processing at the mill
and fabrication be kept to minimum. Rotation of stock, by using oldest material first, is
important. Stocking of such Sheet and strip for extended periods of time should be avoided;
for optimum performance the period should not exceed six weeks.
For skin passed sheet and strip in qualities CR1, CR2, CR3and with due regard to foregoing
precautions, reasonable freedom can be achieved by effective roller levelling immediately
prior to fabrication at the purchaser’s plant. Freedom from stretcher strain and fluting for a
period of six months or three months can be achieved by the supply of skin passed non-
ageing steel or delayed ageing steel respectively. Grades of non ageing quality shall be
7
specified in such cases, where Luder’s lines are not acceptable and where roller levelling is not possible.
9.4 Surface Condition
The surface condition of CR0and CR1 grade should be that normally obtained in a cold rolled
product. Grades of other quality (that is other than CR0 and CR1) are supplied either of the
surface qualities A or B.
a) Surface Quality A (Un exposed) - Imperfections such as pores, slight
imperfections, small marks, minor scratches and slight colouring, which do not
affect the formability or the application of surface coatings are permitted;
b) Surface Quality B (Exposed) - The better surface shall be free of imperfections,
which might affect the uniform appearance of quality coating. The other surface
shall at least conform to surface quality A;
c) Unless otherwise agreed, a single surface of the product shall comply with the
specified requirements. On Mutual agreement between manufacturer and
purchaser, any one of the applicable surface or both the surfaces (For Strip –
Outside/ Inside surface, For Sheet – Top/Bottom Surface) shall comply with the
requirements; and
d) The other surface shall be such that during subsequent treatment it does not have a
deleterious effect on the better surface.
9.5 Surface Finish
a) Cold reduced steel sheet and strip may be supplied in a Bright finish and matt
finsh, dull in appearance, which is suitable for ordinary decorative painting but is
not recommended for electro plating. Surface roughness may be given subject to
mutual agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser;
b) When cold reduced sheet and strip is deformed during fabrication, localized areas
may roughen to some degree and such affected portions of the part may require
hand finishing to prepare the surface for the intended application; and
c) Designation of surface finish shall be as per Table 8
9.6 Oiling
As a deterrent to rusting, a coating of oil is usually applied to the product. The oil is not
intended as a drawing or forming lubricant and should be easily removable with degreasing
chemicals. The product may be ordered not oiled, if required, in which case, the supplier has
no responsibility, if oxidation occurs. For type of oiling, Table 9 can be referred (Reference
purpose only).
10 FREEDOM FROM DEFECTS
10.1The finished sheets and strips shall be reasonably free from harmful defects such as
scale, rust, blisters, laminations, pitting, porosity, cracked or torn edges or any other defects
which are harmful to the intended use
10.2The degree or amount of surface defects in a strip may be expected to be more than in cut
lengths because of the impossibility of rejectingportions of a strip. The purchaser should take
8
this into account and the percentage of admissible defects may be agreed at the time of the
enquiry and order.
10.3The sheets shall be reasonably flat and edges cleanly sheared and squared to the specified
dimensions
11 DIMESNIONS AND TOLERANCES
11.1Unless and other wise agreed to between manufacturer and the purchaser, standard
dimensions of cold rolled sheets and strips shall be as given below:

given in IS/ISO 16162. Stricter dimensional tolerances can be agreed between manufacturer
and purchaser.
11.3For Untrimmed edges, width tolerances shall be +20/-0 mm and for edges which are
trimmed before cold rolled, width tolerances shall be +7/-0 mm. For Edges trimmed after
cold rolling and annealing, width tolerances shall be as per IS/ISO 16162:2012.
12 SAMPLING AND TESTS
12.1One representative sample from a strip or a lot of sheets shall be taken for tensile testing.
A lot consists of 50 tonnes or less of sheets or strips of the same quality rolled to same
thickness and processed in same condition. If the lot consists of more than one heat, samples
from each heat shall be tested.
12.2For cupping, hardness and bend tests, one sample from each lot of 50 tonnes of same heat
or part thereof or one sample from each coil shall be taken.
12.3The specimens shall not undergo any treatment on either surface before testing. In case of
strips, samples shall be taken from the beginning or end of the strip.
12.4The centre of each test piece shall be at a quarter widths. When it is not feasible,
however the sampling should be made as close to the aforementioned position as possible

BAKE HARDENING TEST
The bake hardening index (BH) is the increase in the yield point that is found in the Bake hardening test
carried out.Bake hardening of steel is achieved during the paint baking treatment. The test procedure for the
determination of bake hardening Index is as follows:
a. Test specimen shall be collected from annealed and skin passed material, which is not supposed to
exhibit yield point phenomenon during tensile testing, in the direction mentioned as per Table 5B&
5C. Tensile specimen to be prepared as per IS 1608
b. Parallel portion area of the test piece shall noted be as A0.
c. The test specimen shall be strained to 2 percent tensile elongation. The corresponding force shall be
noted as N1.
d. The specimen shall beunloaded and heated for 20 minutes at a temperature of 1700C.
e. After the heat treatment, the test specimen shall be subjected to tensile testing again. The sharp yield
point is expected to appear along with the yield drop phenomenon. The force corresponding to the
upper yield point shall be noted as N2

FOREWORD
With the constant requirement of greater, stringent and varied requirements for steel sheets and strips
for automobile industry and engineering applications, many specifications were made. An endeavour
is made by Bureau of Indian Standards to identify, summarize and create a new standard. An attempt
is made to cover all such requirements of Automobile and Engineering application under a single
standard. However, interested parties as per their requirement may apply more stringent requirement
against any clause in this standard or specify other characteristics not covered by this standard.
In the present version following modifications are made:
a) New designations and grades are added; and
b) Existing standard is divided into two parts, based on the strength level.
Assistance has been derived from the following:
EN 10268 - Cold rolled steel flat products with high yield strength for cold forming
a) EN 10338 - Hot rolled and cold rolled non-coated products of multiphase steels for cold
forming - Technical delivery conditions
b) JFS A 2001 - Cold-rolled steel sheet and strip for automobile use
c) JIS G 3135- Cold reduced high strength steel sheet and strip with improved formability for
automobile structural uses.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with the
final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis shall be rounded off in
accordance with IS2:1960 ―Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised)’. The number of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value
in this standard.

1 SCOPE
This standard covers the requirements of cold reduced carbon high tensile and multi-phase steel
sheets and strips for forming and where the surface is of prime importance. It covers sheets and strips
up to3.0 mm thick both in coil form and cut lengths.

3 CLASSIFICATION OF GRADES
Sheets and strips shall be classified as per the following groups and designated as per the Table 1.
3.1 High Strength Low Alloy(LA)
Steel exhibit good impact and fatigue strengths. Steels that contain micro alloy additions to achieve
the required strength.
3.2 C,Mn Steel (W)
Steel exhibit high strengths with relatively lower yield stress. Steel that is strengthened by the
addition of Carbon and Manganese, to achieve the required strength.(Minimum Tensile strength
greater than 440 MPa).
3
3.3 Dual Phase Steel (Y)
Steel with very high tensile strengths and low yield ratio. Steels are strengthened with a
microstructure of ferrite and martensite, created by a suitable heat treatment.
3.4 TRIP Steel (T)
Transformation induced plasticity. Steel exhibit outstanding combination of high strength and
ductility. Steels that are strengthened by retained austenite obtained by suitable heat treatment which
transforms into martensite due to application of higher strain.
3.5 Complex Phase (C)
Steel exhibit very high tensile strength with high yield stress and also good elongation. Steels are
strengthened with a microstructure of different phases and extreme fine grain refinement.
3.6 Martensitic Steel (M)
Steel exhibit very high tensile strengthand yield stress and are strengthened with high amount of
martensite.
3.7 Hot forming grades (HF)
Steel exhibit very high tensile properties, which are obtained through a process of hot forming and
subsequent suitable quenching method.
4 SUPPLY OF MATERIAL
4.1General requirements relating to the supply of cold rolled low carbon steel sheets and strip
conform to IS 8910.
4.2 Sheets and strips may be supplied either with mill or trimmed edges.
5 MANUFACTURE
5.1The method of manufacture of steel and subsequent processing for production of steel sheet and
strips shall be left at the discretion of the manufacturer or as agreed between manufacturer and
purchaser.
5.2Sheets and strips shall be supplied rimmed, semi-killed or killed as agreed between the
manufacturer and purchaser.
6 CHEMICAL COMPOSITION

of IS 228 or any other established international instrumental/chemical method, shall be as
4
given in Table 3. In case of any dispute, the procedure given in relevant parts of IS 228 shall
be the referee method.
b. Alternatively, the method specified in relevant ISO standard may be used.
c. Product Analysis – Permissible variation in the case of product analysis from the limits
specified in Table 2 shall be as given in Table 3.
7 MECHANICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
7.1 Tensile Test
a) Tensile shall be carried out only, if specified by the purchaser;
b) Tensile test shall be carried out in accordance with IS 1608/ISO 6892;
c) When specified, tests shall be carried out in accordance with the relevant Indian
Standards of test methods and Mechanical properties shall conform to the
requirements
specified in Table 4A and4B;
d) Tensile test values apply to the direction mentioned in Table 4A and4B; and
e) The yield stress values apply to the 0.2 percent proof stress, if the yield stress is not
clearly distinctive, otherwise the values apply to the lower yield stress.
7.2 Bend Test
a) Bend Test shall be carried out n accordance with IS 1599;
b) The angle of bend and the internal diameter for the different grades of material shall
be
as given in Table 5;
c) The axis of the bend shall be in the direction of rolling. The test pieces shall be deemed
to have passed the test if the outer convex surface is free from cracks; and
d) Bend test is not a mandatory requirement for this standard. The same can be applied
with mutual agreement between manufacturer and purchaser.
7.3 Tensile Strain Hardening Component –n Value
a) The tensile strain hardening is an index of the stretch-ability (n-90), shall be
applicable
only to thickness between 0.50 mm and 2.00 mm. For thickness more than 2.00 mm,
the n-value is reduced by 0.02; and
b) The tensile strain hardening component shall accordance with IS 15756 and results
shallconform to as given in Table 4A and4B.
7.4 Retest
If a test does not give the specified results, two additional tests shall be carried out at random on the
same lot. Both retests shall conform to the requirements of this standard; otherwise individual test on
each coil, (including any bundle of sheets generated from a single coil) shall meet the requirement
otherwise the individual lot shall be rejected.
8 SURFACE FINISH
5
8.1 Cold Reduced Steel Sheet and Strip
This product is normally supplied skin passed (see 8.2), but may be supplied annealed last (that is
without skin pass), if specified by the purchaser before placing the order.
8.2 Skin Pass
The purpose of skin passing is one or more the following:
a) To temporarily minimize the appearance of coil breaks, stretcher strains (Luder lines) or
fluting during fabrication of finished parts;
b) To obtain the required surface finish suitable for ordinary decorative painting; and
c) To control the shape.
Some increase in hardness and some loss in ductility will result from skin passing.
8.3 Strain Ageing
Because of strain ageing factors, it is essential that the period of final processing at the mill and
fabrication be kept to minimum. Rotation of stock, by using oldest material first, is important.
Stocking of such steels for extended periods of time should be avoided; for optimum performance the
period should not exceed six weeks.
8.4 Surface Condition
Grades are supplied either of the surface qualities A or B.
a) Surface Quality A (Un exposed) - Imperfections such as pores, slight imperfections, small
marks, minor scratches and slight colouring, which do not affect the formability or the
application of surface coatings are permitted;
b) Surface Quality B (Exposed) - The better surface shall be free of imperfections, which
might affect the uniform appearance of quality coating. The other surface shall at least
conform to surface quality A;
c) Unless otherwise agreed, a single surface of the product shall comply with the specified
requirements. On Mutual agreement between manufacturer and purchaser, any one of the
applicable surface or both the surfaces (For Strip – Outside/ Inside surface, For Sheet –
Top/Bottom Surface) shall comply with the requirements;
d) The other surface shall be such that during subsequent treatment it does not have a
deleterious effect on the better surface; and
e) Grades of this part of the standard are generally supplied in Surface quality –A.

8.5 Surface Finish
a) Cold reduced steel sheet and strip may be supplied in a Bright finish and matt finsh,
dull in appearance, which is suitable for ordinary decorative painting but is not
recommended for electro plating. Surface roughness may be given subject to mutual
agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser;
b) When cold reduced sheet and strip is deformed during fabrication, localized areas may
roughen to some degree and such affect portions of the part may require hand finishing
to prepare the surface for the intended application; and
c) Designation of surface finish shall be as per Table 6.
8.6 Oiling
As a deterrent to rusting, a coating of oil is usually applied to the product. The oil is not intended as a
drawing or forming lubricant and should be easily removable with degreasing chemicals. The
product may be ordered not oiled, if required, in which case, the supplier has no responsibility, if
oxidation occurs. For type of oiling, Table 7 can be referred (Reference purpose only).
9 FREEDOM FROM DEFECTS
9.1The finished sheets and strips shall be reasonably free from harmful defects such as scale, rust,
blisters, laminations, pitting, porosity, cracked or torn edges or any other defects which are harmful
to the intended use
9.2The degree or amount of surface defects in a strip may be expected to be more than in cut lengths
because of the impossibility of rejecting portions of a strip. The purchaser should take this into
account and the percentage of admissible defects may be agreed at the time of the enquiry and order.
9.3The sheets shall be reasonably flat and edges cleanly sheared and squared to the specified
dimensions
10 DIMESNIONS AND TOLERANCES
10.1Unless and other wise agreed to between manufacturer and the purchaser, standard dimensions
of cold rolled sheets and strips shall be as given below:
Thickness, mm = 0.40, 0.45, 0.50 ,0.55 ,0.63, 0.70 ,0.80 ,0.90 ,1.00 ,1.20 ,1.25 ,1.40 ,1.50
,1.60 ,1.80 and 2.00
The following are the preferred thickness for sheets above 2.00 mm:
Thickness, mm= 2.50 mm, 2.65 mm, 3.00 mm.
10.2Dimensional and shape tolerances applicable to cold rolled sheets and strip shall be as given in
IS/ISO 16162. Stricter dimensional tolerances can be agreed between manufacturer and purchaser.
10.3For Untrimmed edges, width tolerances shall be +20/-0 mm and for edges which are trimmed
before cold rolling, width tolerances shall be +7/-0 mm. For Edges trimmed after cold rolling and
annealing, width tolerances shall be as per IS/ISO 16162.

11 SAMPLING AND TESTS
11.1One representative sample from a strip or a lot of sheets shall be taken for tensile testing. A lot
consists of 50 tonnes or less of sheets or strips of the same quality rolled to same thickness and
processed in same condition. If the lot consists of more than one heat, samples from each heat shall
be tested.
11.2For bend tests, one sample each lot of 50 tonnes of same heat or part thereof or one sample from
each coil shall be taken
11.3The specimens shall not undergo any treatment on either surface before testing. In case of strips,
samples shall be taken from the beginning or end of the strip.
11.4The centre of each test piece shall be at a quarter widths. When it is not feasible, however the
sampling should be made as close to the aforementioned position as possible.
12 MARKING
12.1 Marking
The following shall be legibly marked or printed on a sticker attached on the top of each bundle of
package of sheets /on a tag attached to each coil:
a) Manufacturer’s name or trade mark;
b) Quality designation and grade;
c) Product dimensions;
d) Cast or identification mark by which the sheet or strip may be traced to cast or casts from
which they were made; and
e) Mass/Net weight.
12.2 BIS Certification Marking
The material may also be marked with the standard mark.The use of standard mark is governed by
the provisions of Bureau of Indian standards Act 1986 and the rules and regulations made there
under. The details of conditions under which the licence for the use of standard mark may be granted
to manufacturers or producers may be obtained from the bureau of Indian standards.
12.3 Packing
a) Each sheet shall be treated on both sides with non-hardening type rust preventive oil,
which can be easily washed with aqueous alkali solution;
b) Sheets and strips shall preferably be supplied in bundles or packages not weighing more
than 3 tonnes or as agreed to between the purchaser and the manufacturer; and
c) Sheets and strips shall be securely packed in water resistant material and cover all over
with steel envelope and securely tied round with steel straps and preferably with wooden
battens underneath to prevent the sheets from rusting and damage during transit.

(Fourth Revision)
ICS 77.140.50
FOREWORD This Indian Standard (Fourth Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalizedby Wrought Steel Products Sectional Committee had been approved by the Metallurgical Engineering DivisionCouncil. This standard was first published in 1970 and subsequently revised in 1992, 2002and 2011.While reviewing thestandard, in the light of experience gained during these years, the Committee decided to revise it to bring inline with that present practices being followed by the Indian industry. In this revision the following changeshave been made: a) Chemical and mechanical properties have been modified; b) New grade designation system has been adopted; simultaneously old designations have also been given in Annex 1; c) Grade HR5 designationsof IS1079:2009are included in this fourth revision; d) New grades ferrite-bainite steel, multiphase steel and martensitic steels are added; e) Clauses are rearranged.

3 TERMINOLOGY
For the purpose of this standard the definitionsgiven in IS 1956 (part 4) and the following definitionsshall apply. 3.1 Thermo-Mechanical Rolling — A hot rolling process in which the final deformation is carried out in a certain temperature range to get fine microstructure which is achieved due to finely distributed precipitates mostlycarbides and/or nitrides, leading to a material condition with certain properties that cannot be achieved or repeated by heat treatment alone, and such deformation is followed by cooling, possibly with increased cooling rates, with or without tempering, self-tempering included. Note: Subsequent heating above 580oC typically can lower the strength values.
IS 5986: 2016
Doc: MTD 4(5365)

3.2 Normalizing Rolling — A hot rolling process in which the final deformation is carried out within a certain temperature range equivalent to normalizing temperature, leading to a material condition equivalent to that obtained after normalizing, such that the specified mechanical properties would still be met in the event of any subsequent normalizing.
3.3 Ferritic-Bainitic Steel (High Hole Expansion)— Steel exhibit good hole expansion than regular HSLA steel. Steel contains matrix of Ferrite and Strengthened ferrite containing bainite or strengthened bainite as second phase.
3.4 Dual-Phase Steel — Steel with very high tensile strengths and low yield ratio. Steel consisting of mainly ferrite and martensite and possible bainite as a complementary phase.
3.5 Multiphase Steel — Multiphase steels have multiphase microstructure contains ferrite matrix with fractions of bainite, martensite, tempered martensite, retained austenite and pearlite. 3.6 Martensitic Steel — Martensitic Steels have mainly martensite matrix with small amounts of ferrite and/or bainite.

10.3 If agreed at the time of enquiry and stated in the order impact tests may be carried out on products having thickness less than 12 mm, the dimensions of test piece shall be as specified inIS 1757. The average impact value required formaterial less than 12mm and more than 25 mm thick will be as per mutual agreement between thepurchaser and the manufacturer. 10.4 A test sample shall be taken from each heat. If different thicknesses have been rolled from slabs of a same heat, test sample shall be taken from the thickest products.If this thickest product test sample meets the requirement, all subsequent lower thicknesses rolled from the same cast / heat shall be deemed to satisfy the specification. If the sample does not meet the requirement, the test shall be carried out on the next thickest coil and so on.
11 RETEST
If a test does not give the specified results, twoadditional tests shall be carried out at random on thesame lot. Both retests shall confirm to the requirements ofthis standard; otherwise, individual test on each coil, (including any bundle of plates/sheets generated from a single coil) shall meet the requirement otherwise the individual lot shall be rejected. 12 ALTERNATE TEST METHOD
For all the tests specified in this standard (chemical/physical/others), the method as specified in relevant ISO, EN, ASTM and JIS Standard may also be followed on mutual agreement between supplier and purchaser. For Hole Expansion ratio test, the test method can be followed from any relevant ISO, EN, ASTM and JIS Standard. 13FREEDOM FROM DEFECTS
13.1 Sheets, strips, plates and flats shall be closelyrolled to the dimensions specified. The finishedmaterial shall be free from harmful defects and shallbe reasonably smooth and flat. Repair by weldingshall not be undertaken by the supplier without thepermission of the purchaser. 13.2 When the material is supplied in the form of coils, the degree or amount of surface defects are expectedto be more than in cut length sheets since theinspection of coils does not afford the sameopportunity to reject portion continuing defects aswith cut lengths. However, an excessive amount ofdefects may be a cause for rejection. 13.3 In case of plates, scale pits and other minorsurface defectsmay be removed by grinding, thedepth of grinding being such that the thickness ofthe plate shall not go below the specified value, atthe spot where dressing is done. The grinding shallbe even and smooth and shall be widened enough toremove sharp ridges. Dressing with a hammer or welding of defective spots shall not be permitted.

FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Seventh Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the
draftfinalized by the Wrought Steel Products Sectional Committee had been approved by the
MetallurgicalEngineering Division Council.
This standard was first published in 1958 and subsequently revised in 1962, 1968, 1973, 1988,
1994and 2009. While reviewing this standard, in the light of experience gained during these years,
theCommittee decided to revise it to bring in line with the present practices being followed by the
Indianindustry and overseas standards of hot rolled carbon steel sheets.
In this revision the following changes have been made:
a) Chemical composition has been modified;
b) Clauses3, 6.3, 8.3.2, 12, 13.3, 17.2 and 18 are added;
c)Clauses 1, 2, 5, 6.2, 8.1, 8.2, 9.1, and 16.1have been modified;
d) New grade designation system has been adopted for new included grades;
e) Grade HR5 has been removed and these grades are included in IS5986:2016 fourth
revision;
and
f) Clause 10 strain age test has been removed.
While revising the standard assistance has been derived from ISO 3573 - 'Hot rolled carbon
steelsheet of commercial and drawing qualities', JFS A1001 - ‘Hot rolled steel sheet and strip for automobile use’, JIS G3113 - ‘Hot rolled steel plate, sheet and strip for automobile structural uses’, and DIN EN10111 - ‘Continuously hot rolled low carbon steel sheet and strip for cold forming’.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the
finalvalue, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis shall be rounded off
inaccordance with IS 2: 1960 'Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised). The number
ofsignificant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified
value inthis standard.

13 FREEDOM FROM DEFECTS
13.1 The finished material in cut length shall be free from harmful defects which will affect the end
use. When the material is supplied in the form of coils, the degree or amount of surface defects are
expected to be more than in cut length sheets since the inspection of coils does not afford the same
opportunity to reject the portion containing defects as with cut length. However, an excessive number
of defects may be the cause for rejection. The standards for acceptance in such case can be agreed to
between the purchaser and the supplier.
13.2 Edges may be mill edges or slit edges as agreed to between the supplier and purchaser. When
mill edges are specified, the depth of the defects shall be within 5 mm from the edges of the coils on
both sides.
13.3 In case of sheets, plates or strip, scale pits and other minor surface defects may be removed by
grinding, the depth of grinding being such that the thickness of the plate shall not go below the
specified value, at the spot where dressing is done. The grinding shall be even and smooth and shall
be widened enough to remove sharp ridges. Dressing with a hammer or welding of defective spots
shall not be permitted.
14 DIMENSIONS AND TOLERANCES
14.1 Unless otherwise agreed to between the supplier and the purchaser,standard dimensions of hot
rolledsteel sheet, plate and strip shall be as specified in IS 1730.
14.2 Unless otherwise agreed the dimensional tolerances for hot-rolled steel sheet, plate and strip
shall be as given in IS/ISO 16160 and IS1852 for plates from plate mill and also for sizes and
tolerances not covered in IS/ISO 16160.
14.2.1 Unless otherwise agreed the restricted thickness tolerances shall be as given in IS/ISO 16160.
15 CALCULATION OF WEIGHT
Material shall be supplied on the basis of actual weight. If weighing is not possible, the mass of the
material shall be calculated on the basis that steel weighs 7.85 g/cm2.
16 DELIVERY
16.1 The material may be supplied in any one (or, in combination) of the following conditions
subject to mutual agreement between the supplier and the purchaser:
a) Hot rolled
- As Rolled,
- Normalizing Rolling (Delivery condition is +N),
b) Annealed,

Unless and otherwise agreed, material shall be supplied in hot rolled condition (As rolled).
16.2 Subject to prior agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser, a suitable protective
treatment may be given to the material.
17 MARKING AND PACKING
17.1 Plates andSheets shall be supplied in bundles, and strips either in bundles or coils. Each
bundleshall carry a metal tag or adhesive label/sticker bearing the cast number or identification mark
or lot number traceable to the cast number and the manufacturer‘s name or trade mark. Alternatively, top sheet/plate or strips in each bundle shall be legibly marked with the cast number or identification

FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (First Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft
finalizedby Wrought Steel Products Sectional Committee had been approved by the Metallurgical
Engineering DivisionCouncil.
This standard was first published in 1985and subsequently revised in 2011. While reviewing this
standard, in the light of experience gainedduring these years, the Committee decided to revise it to
bring in line with that present practices beingfollowed by the Indian industry.
In this revision the following changes have been made:
a)Chemical composition has been modified for CR0, CR1, CR2 and CR4;
b) Clauses 1, 4, 6.1 and 6.2have been modified; Clause 5.1.2 has been removed.
c) New steel types like Interstitial Free-High Strength steel, Bake Hardening steel, Re-Phosphorized
steel, Dual Phase steel, TRIP steel, Complex Phase steel, Martensitic steel, and Hot Forming steel
have been added and new designations for the same are aligned with IS 513: 2016 ‘Cold reduced low carbon steel sheets and strips of part 1 & part 2’, as these are intended for cold rolling purposes;
For all the tests specified in this standard (chemical/physical/others), the method as specified in
relevant ISO, ASTM, EN and JISStandard may also be followed as an alternate method.
While revising the standard assistance has been derived from IS 513: 2016 ‘Cold reduced low carbon steel sheets and strips of part 1 and part 2’.
It is intended to cover medium and high carbon steel strip under a separate standard.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the
final value,observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in
accordance withIS 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised)’. The number of significant places retained inthe rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in
this standard.

between purchaser and manufacturer.
7 RETEST If a test does not give the specified results, two additional tests shall be carried out at random on the
same lot. Both retests shall conform to the requirements of this standard; otherwise, the lot shall be
rejected.
8 FREEDOM FROM DEFECTS The steel shall be free from amounts of segregation, laminations, surface flaws and other defects
which are detrimental to subsequent processing and ultimate use. The degree or amount of surface
defects in a coil may be expected to be more than in cut lengths because of the impossibility of
rejecting the portions of a coil. This shall be taken into account by the purchaser in his assessment of
the material. An excessive amount of defects may be the cause for rejection.
