The strip shall be of constant widthand wound in such a manner that the edges are superimposed in a regular manner and that the side faces of coilare substantially flat.The coils shall be sufficiently tightly wound so that they do not collapse under their own weight.The strip can occasionally exhibit welds or interleaves resulting from the removal of defective zones subject to prioragreement between the parties. The value of the additional thickness due to the weld is subject to agreement. Ifnecessary the marking of welds or interleaves may form the subject of a special agreement.For coils containing repair welds or interleaves, each part of the strip shall be of the same quality material.The edges of parts welded together shall not be so much out of alignment as to affect the further processing of thematerial.The mass of coils shall be agreed at the time of ordering.6.2.2 Sheet and plateThis material may be supplied in the hot or cold rolled conditions.The edges of the sheet or plate, parallel to the rolling direction shall be as rolled, mechanically sheared or flamecut.6.2.3 Flats and barsThe material may be supplied in the hot or cold rolled conditions or cold drawn condition.6.2.4 Wire rod and wiresWire rod and wires are delivered respectively in the hot rolled condition and in the drawn condition.These products are delivered in the form of coils ; the mass of the coils shall be defined at the time of ordering.SIST EN 10304:2002
