Applicability and limitations
Q/BQB 517—2023, official original on the Baosteel website, Table 1, row 6; cast-analysis mass fraction wt%. Table footnote a: residual Cr≤0.20, Ni≤0.20, Cu≤0.20, Mo≤0.06 wt%; where this row specifies otherwise, its requirement for that element takes precedence. Unlisted elements and special agreement requirements must not be treated as zero or assumed guarantees; permitted product-analysis deviations are governed separately by GB/T 222. Wire rod is delivered hot rolled; stricter P/S under Z1 and special surface or inclusion quality must be confirmed under normative Annex A and the contractual ordering codes. Fixed mechanical properties must not be inferred from the chemistry table.

Applicability and limitations
Edition 1999, main-text Table 1, row 5, unified numerical designation U20102. This record uses the default quality-steel class; heat analysis, mass fraction %. Table 2: for quality steel, P and S are each ≤0.035%; for higher-quality class A, each is ≤0.030%; for special-quality class E, the requirements are P≤0.025% and S≤0.020%. Do not apply A/E limits to the default class. 6.1.1.2—3: scrap-based steelmaking may permit Cu≤0.30%; steel for hot pressure working requires Cu≤0.20%. This record retains the default Cu≤0.25% in Table 1; specific conditions require separate confirmation. 6.1.1.4: Mn/Cr/Ni/Cu for lead-patented steel wire 35—85 has a separate restriction and does not apply to this default structural-steel record. Mechanical properties in Table 3 and 6.4 depend on specimens, dimensions, heat treatment and order requirements. Existing reference properties are not upgraded to universal guarantees by this composition review.

Applicability and limitations
Clause 7.1.1 of GB/T3078—2019: quality carbon structural steel follows GB/T699, and alloy structural steel follows GB/T3077; The referenced composition standard must also be shown. This grade is listed in Table 2, row 1; Hardness by delivery condition is listed under separate conditions in Table 2; Actual use and delivery condition require separate verification and are not automatically treated as satisfied. Cold-drawn steel bars
cold-drawn polished round steel; Product-analysis tolerances under GB/T222 require separate verification and are not added to the heat-analysis range. Table 1 of GB/T699-2015 gives heat-analysis mass fractions wt%; Product-analysis tolerances are listed separately under GB/T222. Table 1, note a: Cu≤0.20% for steel intended for hot pressure working; other tabulated cases are ≤0.25%. 6.1.2: N≤0.008% applies to basic oxygen steelmaking; analysis may be omitted if the supplier guarantees compliance; Applicability depends on the steelmaking method. 6.1.3: for lead-bath-patented wire, Mn0.30–0.60% for 35–85 and Mn0.70–1.00% for 65Mn/70Mn, Cr≤0.10/Ni≤0.15/Cu≤0.20%; P/S follows the corresponding wire standard and must not exceed Table 1. This is a conditional exception, not a general range. Elements not specified in the table must not be intentionally added without purchaser consent.

Standard condition data, not actual measured results of supplied heats; Actual delivery condition, application, and contract must be confirmed.
- Clause 7.3.1: The specific delivery condition shall be stated in the contract; if it is not specified, delivery shall be in the cold-drawn condition.
- 7.4.1 Hardness for delivery in the normalized condition shall be agreed by both parties; the two general-use columns in Table 2 do not apply to the normalized condition.
- Values in parentheses are for reference and are not acceptance criteria.
- 7.4.2 Hot-pressure-working applications are subject to separate limits; do not automatically apply the general condition in Table 2.
- 7.4.2 For hot-pressure working, supplied in the cold-drawn condition: 50Mn2, 35CrMnSi, 42CrMo and 35CrMoV per Table 2; 38CrSi and 38CrMoAl ≤285 HBW; other grades ≤269 HBW. Confirm the actual use; the ordinary Table 2 condition cannot replace this condition.
- 7.4.3 No hardness test is performed when the nominal cross-sectional dimension (diameter, thickness or diagonal length) is below 5 mm. At the purchaser’s request, stated in the contract, tensile strength may be used instead of hardness; the specific requirements shall be agreed by both parties. This clause provides no automatic conversion relationship.
Cold-drawn or cold-drawn and bright-polished delivery; Table 2 conditions are for general use. For hot-pressure-working applications, check clause 7.4.2 separately.
HBW:≤ 229 (lower limit not stated) HBW
Delivery in the annealed, bright-annealed, high-temperature-tempered or tempered-after-normalizing condition; delivery as-normalized is excluded and shall be agreed by both parties under 7.4.1.
