Chemical composition · Cast analysis

Mass fraction %; Table 3, page 17 of the user's PDF. Unlisted elements must not be treated as 0; intentional addition of unlisted elements is subject to the standard and ordering agreement.

ElementMass fraction / %
C0.18~0.25
Si≤0.4
Mn1.3~1.65
P≤0.025
S≤0.035
Cr≤0.4
Mo≤0.1
Ni≤0.4
Cu≤0.3

When A.4 is expressly selected in the order, Si≥0.10% may be agreed; the basic table still specifies Si≤0.40%.

Delivery conditions and hardness · Table 7

Brinell hardness. +S: treated to improve shearability; +A: soft annealed; +TH: treated to a specified hardness range; +FP: treated to a ferrite-pearlite structure; +N: normalized. “—” means no requirement is specified for that delivery condition.

Heat treatment and test-piece conditions · Table 8

ItemTemperature / ℃
Austenitizing temperature for the end-quench test—
Carburizing temperature (guidance)880~980
Direct and first quenching temperature (guidance)830~870
Second quenching: core quenching temperature (guidance)880~920
Second quenching: case quenching temperature (guidance)780~820
Tempering temperature (guidance)150~200

Except for the end-quench austenitizing temperature, carburizing, quenching and tempering temperatures are guidance values; the actual process must achieve the required properties. Guidance holding times are at least 30 minutes for austenitizing and at least 1 hour for tempering. Select the quenching medium according to product shape, cooling conditions and furnace load.

Hardenability conditions · Tables 5 and 6

Tables 5 and 6 do not specify a hardenability band for this grade. Do not apply the band of another grade.

Permissible deviations in product analysis · Table 4
ElementSpecified cast-analysis range / %Permissible product-analysis deviation / %
C0.07<C≤0.31±0.02
Si≤0.40±0.03
Mn≤1.00 / >1.00~1.65±0.04 / ±0.06
P≤0.025+0.005
S≤0.040±0.005
Cr≤1.80±0.05
Mo≤0.30 / >0.30~0.50±0.03 / ±0.04
Ni≤1.00 / >1.00~2.00 / >2.00~3.50±0.03 / ±0.05 / ±0.07
Cu≤0.40+0.05
B≤0.0050±0.0003

“±” permits a deviation for a single cast above the upper limit or below the lower limit, in one direction only. Product-analysis deviations do not change the cast-analysis limits in Table 3.

Standard edition and ordering notes

The standard covers products including wire rod. Finished cold-heading wire supply, processing and properties require technical review and order confirmation. — means not specified in this table, not 0.
