Tolerence is based on EN 10218-2:1996
T5 for diameters below 0,80 mm;
T4 for diameters from 0,80 mm up to 10,00 mm;
T3 for diameters over 10,00 mm.

Dimensions and dimensional tolerances for Wire in straightened and cut lengths

The requirements for length tolerances and straightness are as in EN 10218-2:1996. The tolerance on the nominal length shall only be in plus keeping the same tolerance range (Table 7).

Tolerances on the length of cut lengths

Nominal length L (mm) Tolerance
Class 1 Class 2 Class 3
L<= 300 + 1,0 mm
0 mm
+ 1 %
0 %
+ 2 %
0 %
300 < L <= 1000 + 2,0 mm
0 mm
1000 < L + 0,2 %
0 %

The tolerance for the diameter of the wire after straightening needs to be wider to cope with the increase of the section as a result of some straightening process.
