Sheet metal thickness tolerances for austenitic ferritic and martensitic stainless steels. In the above example m and k has defined the tolerance. The flatness tolerance of of strip sheet plate and cut length shall not exceed 10mm for normal cases and 7mm where a special tolerance fs is required for length 3000mm and 12mm for normal cases and 8mm where a special tolerance fs is required for length 3000mm. This is identical to the requirements of en 10259.
