Ask a question General question about a grade or standard Find an equivalent Cross-reference a grade to another standard Request a quote Get pricing for material, form and quantity Something else Tell us in your own words — we will route it. ## The target standard Which standard do you need it in? ### Where it has to land We look the match up in our own catalogue — only standards we actually hold are listed.

Plate / sheet Round bar Flat bar Tube / pipe Section / profile Forging Other form ## Dimensions & tolerances The dimensions for that shape, and the tolerance class. ### Form and dimensions A mill prices form and dimensions — without them any figure is a guess.

EN 10204 3.2 Like 3.1, additionally countersigned by an independent inspector. ## Surface & condition Surface and heat treatment on delivery. ### As-delivered state Surface and heat treatment change both the price and the lead time — and often the grade that fits.
