Full title and description

ISO 10384:2012 — Hot-rolled carbon steel sheet as defined by chemical composition. This International Standard specifies requirements for hot‑rolled carbon steel sheet defined by its chemical composition and intended typical uses in general machinery and agricultural implements.

Abstract

ISO 10384:2012 applies to hot‑rolled carbon steel sheet defined by chemical composition. The product is generally intended for supply in heat‑treated condition or for subsequent heat treatment after hot or cold working, and is commonly used for items such as sprocket wheels, chain links, washers, knife blades and agricultural implements.

Key bibliographic and lifecycle information (status, edition, ICS and confirmation) is taken from the ISO record for this publication.

Scope

This standard specifies requirements for hot‑rolled carbon steel sheet defined by chemical composition, intended for general engineering uses and for supply in a condition suitable for heat treatment after forming or cutting by the customer. It covers the chemical definition of product families and the intended applications rather than exhaustive mechanical test procedures.

Key topics and requirements

• Definition of hot‑rolled carbon steel sheet by chemical composition (product classification).
• Intended supply conditions and note on heat treatment after forming or cutting.
• Typical end‑use examples (sprocket wheels, chain links, washers, knife blades, agricultural implements).
• Specification is short (concise technical requirements; edition 4, 2012) and intended to be used with purchaser‑specified mechanical or dimensional requirements as needed.
• Lifecycle and confirmation status (systematic review and confirmation recorded by ISO).

Typical use and users

Material engineers, product designers, steel sheet manufacturers, purchasers and procurement specialists use ISO 10384:2012 to identify and specify hot‑rolled carbon sheet by chemical composition for general engineering applications. Standards librarians and conformity assessment bodies also reference this publication when verifying edition and status.

Related standards

ISO 10384:2012 follows and replaces earlier editions (previous edition ISO 10384:2008 withdrawn). It sits within the body of ISO standards on steel products developed by ISO/TC 17/SC 12 and is conceptually related to other ISO and national standards covering steel sheet, strip and material test methods; users often consult complementary standards for dimensional tolerances, mechanical testing and product delivery conditions.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: ISO 10384:2012 is an International Standard that defines hot‑rolled carbon steel sheet by chemical composition and gives guidance on its intended supply and typical uses.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers classification of hot‑rolled carbon steel sheet based on chemical composition and describes intended supply conditions and typical applications; it is concise and used alongside purchaser‑specified mechanical and dimensional requirements.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Material and design engineers, steel producers, purchasers, standards bodies and conformity assessors who need a chemical‑composition‑based reference for hot‑rolled carbon steel sheet.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: As of its most recent ISO record review, ISO 10384:2012 was reviewed and confirmed in 2024 and therefore remains the current edition.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: It is part of ISO's suite of standards on steel and steel products developed under ISO/TC 17 (subcommittee SC 12) and follows earlier national and international editions (previous ISO 10384:2008). Users commonly reference this alongside other ISO and national standards covering steel sheet, strip and associated test methods.
