39MNB5

2 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.

IIW / CEV:0.5517–0.6883Known-element contribution; incomplete value; missing Cr, Mo, V, Ni CEV = C + Mn/6 + (Cr + Mo + V)/5 + (Ni + Cu)/15; an engineering estimate of welding cold-cracking susceptibility for carbon and low-alloy steels.
Pcm(Ito–Bessyo):0.4215–0.5508Known-element contribution; incomplete value; missing Cr, Ni, Mo, V Pcm = C + Si/30 + (Mn + Cu + Cr)/20 + Ni/60 + Mo/15 + V/10 + 5B; mainly used for low-carbon low-alloy steels, particularly modern low-carbon pipeline steels; more relevant when C is approximately no higher than 0.11%.
CET:0.4750–0.5850Known-element contribution; incomplete value; missing Mo, Cr, Ni CET = C + (Mn + Mo)/10 + (Cr + Cu)/20 + Ni/40; used in welding preheat assessment for ferritic steels, subject to the applicability conditions of EN 1011-2.

Applicability and limitations

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.

Verification notes

Original-image verification of all 25 physical rows and merged cells in Table 3; reuse existing independently cropped evidence for 5 same-source rows and 40 cells, transcribe the remaining cells individually from the source images, and record the two editions separately.
