BIS CERTIFICATION FOR STEEL FOR HARDENING AND TEMPERING IS 5517:1993

INTRODUCTION

Steel for hardening and tempering is a special type of steel. It goes through two heating steps. First, it's heated to become harder and stronger. Then, it's heated again to make it less likely to break and more resilient. This kind of steel is used for making things like tools and blades, where you need them to be both hard and tough.

To ensure the product quality of steel for hardening & tempering, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has made it mandatory for manufacturers to undergo BIS registration and obtain the BIS ISI mark before selling it in the market. Manufacturers can use the ISI Mark on their products only after obtaining a license from BIS that is granted after BIS registration. The presence of the ISI mark on a product indicates that it complies with BIS's stringent quality standards.

IS 8910:1978 specifies the general requirements for material supply.

This standard specifies the technical and delivery requirements for wrought alloyed and unalloyed steels in the form of bars, rods, flats, plates, forgings, etc to be used in hardened and tempered conditions. This standard's steel is generally intended for the forging and machining of parts for engineering or automobile purposes.
