DIN EN ISO 148-1 Charpy Pendulum Impact Test (Metals) – Test Method

← Back to all standards

DIN EN ISO 148-1 is the German adoption of ISO 148-1, the Charpy pendulum impact test for metals. The technical content matches the ISO version; the DIN EN designation is what German and EU quality systems cite. To match this to your program, talk with our team.

What DIN EN ISO 148-1 Covers

It defines the Charpy V-notch specimen, the machine geometry, and how absorbed energy is measured, so metal toughness results are comparable across the European framework.

Why It Matters

European specifications reference DIN EN ISO 148-1 rather than the bare ISO number. A test to this designation supports toughness acceptance in that market.

Reading the Designation

Cited as DIN EN ISO 148-1 with its edition year. Confirm the edition and the specimen or notch requirements before finalizing fixtures and reporting. To configure an impact setup, request a quote.
