BS EN 10246-1:1996 is a British Standard that specifies non-destructive testing (NDT) methods for detecting surface imperfections in steel products. The standard covers various types of surface inspection techniques, including magnetic particle testing, penetrant testing, and visual testing.
The purpose of this standard is to ensure that steel products, such as plates, bars, and forgings, meet the required quality standards and do not have surface defects that could affect their performance or integrity.
The standard provides guidelines for the selection of the appropriate NDT method based on the type and size of the product being inspected, as well as the nature and severity of any surface defects that may be present.
BS EN 10246-1:1996 is relevant for manufacturers, inspectors, and users of steel products, as well as third-party inspection and certification bodies. It is important to note that this standard has since been replaced by EN ISO 17638:2016, which is the current international standard for non-destructive testing of steel products.
