The fischer group of companies will simplify the naming of its products manufactured in stainless steel according to European harmonization. In future fischer will align the product names of its products in stainless steel according to the corrosion resistance classes included in EN 1993-1-4.
Products made of stainless steels, of corrosion resistance class III, will in future be marked with the designation R (Resistant).These stainless steels may be used in dry internal conditions, for external atmospheric exposure (including industrial and marine environments) and in permanently damp internal condition.
Example bolt anchor:
Art. No. 501403 FAZ II 10/10 A4 → Art. No. 501403 FAZ II 10/10 R
Products made of steels of corrosion resistance class V will in future be marked with the designation HCR (High Corrosion Resistant). Tougher than the conditions of corrosion
resistance class III, these stainless steels may be used , also if other particular aggressive conditions exist (e.g. permanent, alternating immersion in seawater or chloride atmosphere in indoor swimming pools, or athmosphere with extreme chemical polution).
Example bolt anchor:
Art. No. 501430 FAZ II 10/10 C → Art. No. 501430 FAZ II 10/10 HCR
We have summarized all information on the change of the product designation in a compact flyer in PDF format.
The designation change of name will be reflected in the complete product range and starts with the following product families:
Anchor bolts FAZ II, FBZ, FBN II, FXA, High Performance Anchor FH II, Undercut Anchor FZA, the threaded rods FIS A and RG M and Internally threaded anchor RGM I.
All technical data, the article numbers of the products and the well-known fischer quality remain unchanged.
