7 Measurement
7.1 Thickness and width

The thickness and width shall be measured at any point situated at least 100 mm from the end of the
bar. Cold shearing may deform the bar ends. The condition of the ends may be agreed at time of enquiry
and order.
7.2 Length

The length shall be measured as the longest length of the bar.

7.3 Straightness

The straightness shall be measured over the total length L of the bar.
7.4 Out-of-squareness

The out-of-squareness shall be measured according to Figure 2 as the difference u on the nominal width
b.

Figure 2 — Out-of-squareness

7.5 Maximum permissible variation in thickness across the width for wide flats

The variation in thickness across the width shall be determined along a line running perpendicular to
the longitudinal axis of the product with the measuring points being at least 20 mm from the
longitudinal edges and at least 100 mm from the ends of the bar.
