Foreword
This translation has been made based on the original Japanese Industrial Standard
revised by the Minister of Economy,Trade and Industry through deliberations at the
Japanese Industrial Standards Committee as the result of proposal for revision of
Japanese Industrial Standard submitted by The Japan Iron and Steel Federation (JISF)
with the draft being attached, based on the provision of Article 12 Clause 1 of the
Industrial Standardization Law applicable to the case of revision by the provision of
Article 14.
Consequently, JIS G 3116:2010 is replaced with this Standard.
This JIS document is protected by the Copyright Law.
Attention is drawn to the possibilitythat someparts ofthis Standard may conflictwith
patent rights, applicationsfor a patent after openingto the publicor utility modelrights.
The relevant Minister and the Japanese Industrial Standards Committee are not

gas cylinders

1 Scope
This Japanese Industrial Standard specifies the hot-rolled steel sheets, plates and
strips (hereafter referred to as "steel sheets, plates and strips") to be used for welded
gas cylinders with a maximum capacity of 500 L which contain such high-pressure gases
as LP gas and acetylene.

2 Normative references

constitute provisions of this Standard. The most recent editions of the standards
(including amendments) indicated below shall be applied.

5 Mechanical properties
The steel sheets, plates and strips shall be tested in accordance with 8.2, and t~eir
yield point or proofstress, tensile strength, elongation and bendability shall be as given
in table 3.
For the bendability, there shall be no crack on the outside of test piece for bend
test.
NOTE: See 8.2.1 for the test of the bendability.

6 Shape, dimension, mass and tolerance thereof


The shape, dimension, mass and their tolerances of the steel sheets, plates and strips
shall be as specified in JIS G 3193. The tolerances on thickness shall be as given in
table 4 and table 5. Unless otherwise specified,the tolerances on length of steel sheets
and plates, and those on width of the cut edge shall be tolerance A specified,in JIS G
3193.
As for the squareness of the cut edge of steel sheet, which is cut from the steel strip,
the followingmethod using the diagonal lines may be applied. However, if any doubt
arises, the method specified in JIS G 3193 shall be applied.
The half of absolute value of the difference of two diagonal lines of steel sheets and
plates (XI and X2 in figure 1)shall be obtained, and this value (IXI - X21/2) shall not exceed
0.7 % of the measured width W.
