ISO 4954:2018; heat analysis, mass fraction %; values without a stated range are upper limits; see the source page for complete table footnotes. The website does not specify the edition; the source edition is shown here and does not establish contractual applicability.

ISO 4954:2018, Table C.3 gives heat analysis; A single value is a maximum; a dash is not zero. ; Product-analysis tolerances are listed separately under Table 2/3 of the standard and do not directly widen the heat-analysis composition ranges. ; Optional Al0.020–0.050% to improve cold-heading performance; this is not a universal mandatory minimum. ; Low Si may be agreed in the order, taking hardenability into account; Where hardenability is required, the standard permits limited deviations, except for P/S; C must not exceed 0.01%; see Table 2 for the other requirements. ; When a Cr maximum of 0.30% is specified, a minimum Cr may be agreed at ordering; 30MoB1 requires guaranteed hardenability, with Cr minimum 0.15% and an upper limit adjustable by agreement.

Composition is based on Table 3 of EN10083-3:2006 in the official English text of DIN EN10083-3:2007-01, heat analysis wt%. ; Note a: Elements not listed shall not be intentionally added without the purchaser's consent, except for additions needed to finish steelmaking and to enable boron to act on hardenability.; Unspecified values shall not be treated as zero. ; Note b: Small deviations are permitted where hardenability or quenched-and-tempered mechanical-property requirements apply, except for C/P/S; permitted deviations for other elements must not exceed Table 4.; Default heat analysis range shall not be expanded. ; For non-boron steels in this standard, Note c permits steel with improved machinability to be supplied on request: sulfur approximately 0.10%, with the Mn upper limit permitted to increase by an absolute 0.15%.; Approximate values are not default hard upper limits and must be determined by specific inquiry/order; they shall not be automatically mixed with ordinary grades. ; This standard covers alloy steels for quenching and tempering. Suitability for cold heading, wire-rod supply, annealing, surface and dimensions require separate confirmation; do not automatically add products..

Table 3 herein applies to heat (cast) analysis, mass fraction wt%; The permissible deviations for product analysis in Table 4 shall not be directly added to the limits in general Table 3. This document is EN ISO 683-2:2018, adopted without modification and accompanied by the text of ISO 683-2:2016; This record explicitly preserves the identity of EN ISO 683-2-2018 and shall not be called the ISO 2018 edition. Only the chemical composition and source conditions of Table 3 are verified; this does not constitute a guarantee of hardenability, heat treatment, mechanical properties, wire delivery state, or cold heading process. Note a: deviations in heat analysis apply only when hardenability requirements are specified; The deviation in C shall not exceed ±0.01%; P/S is excluded, and the other elements follow Table 4. General Table 3 shall not be automatically relaxed, nor shall H/HH/HL be merged with general grades. Note b: Steel with S increased to approximately 0.10% (including sulfide morphology control) or with the addition of Pb to improve machinability may be requested from the supplier; When S is increased, the upper limit of Mn may be increased by 0.15 percentage points. This agreement is not a default requirement, and approximate values shall not serve as precise automatic limits for this batch; if the Pb range is not listed, values shall not be borrowed from other standards. Original Note: Elements not listed shall not be intentionally added without the consent of the purchaser, except those required to complete the melting process; Elements introduced via scrap steel etc. shall be controlled. An unlisted value must not be assumed to be zero. Si in this row is given only as ≤0.40%, with no lower limit listed; do not supplement with 0.10%; B is retained as 0.0008–0.0050% per the Others column of the original table.
