Steel Standart

Material number 1.0580: E355

1.0580 is the European material number (Werkstoffnummer, EN 10027-2) for E355, seamless cold drawn precision tube specified in EN 10305-1.

Reading 1.0580 digit by digit

An EN 10027-2 number has the form 1.XXYY. The leading 1 marks it as steel. The pair 05 is the steel group, and for this number that group is steels 0.25–0.55 % C or Rm 500–700 MPa. The final pair 80 is a sequential count inside that group and carries no meaning of its own — 1.0580 is simply the 80th entry registered there.

The group digits are the useful part. Reading 05 tells you what kind of steel you are looking at before you know anything else about it, and the 6 other numbers from group 05 held here are listed below.
