DIN EN 12167:2011
Copper and copper alloys - Profiles and bars for general purposes; German version EN 12167:2011 (Foreign Standard)
This European Standard specifies the composition, property requirements and dimensional tolerances for copper alloy profiles including L-, T-, U-shaped cross-sections, and bars, finally produced by drawing or extruding. This European Standard applies to profiles with L-, T- and U-shaped cross-sections which would fit within a circumscribing circle of a maximum 180 mm diameter and to bars with thicknesses from 3 mm up to and including 60 mm and with widths from 6 mm up to and including 120 mm. The sampling procedures, the methods of test for verification of conformity to the requirements of this European Standard, are also specified.*The standard DIN EN 12167 specifies the composition, property requirements and dimensional tolerances for copper alloy profiles, including those with L-, T- and U-shaped cross sections and rectangular bars finished by drawing or pressing. The standard applies to profiles with L-, T- and U-shaped cross sections with a circumscribing circle diameter of 180 mm maximum and rectangular bars with thicknesses from 3 mm up to and including 60 mm and with widths from 6 mm up to and including 120 mm. The sampling procedures, the test methods for verification of conformity to the requirements of this standard, and the delivery conditions are also specified. The standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of the EC Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) 97/23/EC. The European Standard has been prepared by CEN/TC 133 "Copper and copper alloys" (secretariat: DIN). Regarding German collaboration, the responsible Committee is Working Committee NA 066-02-04 AA "Strangpress- und Zieherzeugnisse" ("Extruded and drawn products") at FNNE.
