EN 10357 (DIN 11850)
The EN 10357 is the leading production standard for all food pipes in Europe. All serious manufacturers use this standard for all size ranges available. However, given the tolerances and the various finishing options, there is an extremely wide range. The different qualities also have a different price level. These different qualities can be specified or checked using a code. If you do not mention this when ordering, the delivered goods may deviate from the desired or required execution.
The EN 10357 has a direct link to the EN 10217-7 and the annealed version is suitable for pressure applications that fall under PED. (Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU)
SKS only works with manufacturers who are certified according to the PED requirement.
Stainless steel types; 1.4306 or 1.4307 (304L) and 1.4404 or 1.4432 (316L)
Dimension table and tolerances
Dimension table from EN-10357 and tolerances according to EN-ISO 1127
Test procedure EN 10217-7 TC1
Welding factor: Z = 1.0 (PED requirement)
Destructive and non- destructive testing
Surface roughness Ra (DIN 4768 table 3)
Internal length of weld seam rolled away cold.
H2 version* = Ra < 0.8 µm and < 1.6 µm in the welding environment (Official according to standard)
H3 version* = Ra < 0.8 µm also in the welding environment. (EHEDG requirement)
* H2 and H3 is an SKS name that comes from the DIN 11866 standard (Hygienic class)
CC = unannealed, pickled W2b (K1g)
BC = annealed, pickled W2Ab (K2g) or bright annealed W2Rb (K3g)
CD = unannealed, externally ground (grit 320)
BD = annealed, externally ground (grit 320)
Certificates
3.1 certificate According to EN 10204 (3.2 certificate also possible on request)
EN 10357-A
The family of standards under EN 10357-A are written on top of each other and refer to each other. The various components not only fit together perfectly in terms of dimensions, but also have an equivalent finish or application option. Below we first provide a technical summary of the various standards and then we will provide an overview of the delivery options with the specific data. This range of materials is the most complete within all options for the food industry. They are also the most widely used, but due to price pressure they are also the most copied in other qualities. The components of this package that SKS carries under the Q-Plus and Q-Fitt label are exactly in accordance with the standard. SKS takes responsibility for traceability and quality.
EN 10357
There are sometimes very small tolerance differences within the inch sizes. It is therefore important to choose the fitting sizes for these pipes. Because these fittings are not yet EN-standardized, this means a multitude of options based on the old standards. This also applies to the associated links. The parts of this package that SKS carries under the Q-Fitt label are exactly in accordance with the standard. SKS takes responsibility for this with regard to traceability and quality.
