1 source records. Standards, editions and conditions are presented separately; matching grade names do not establish interchangeability.
Refer to each source for mass fractions and analysis type. Missing values are not treated as 0. Manufacturer typical values, standard guarantees and measured heat results must remain separate. Use the material selector for calculations and condition selection.

| Si | ≤ 0.17 (lower limit not stated) |
| Mn | 0.35 ～ 0.65 |
| Cr | ≤ 0.25 (lower limit not stated) |

Applicability and limitations
6.1.1.8: 15b and Si≤0.17% apply only when supply of 08—25 semi-killed steel is agreed between purchaser and supplier; this is not a default grade in Table 1. The original Table 2 gives default quality-steel limits P and S≤0.035%; higher or special quality must be selected separately.
