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:0.8100–1.0800 Independent-element envelope of standard ranges; not measured heat-analysis values 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.

CET:0.5625–0.7125 Independent-element envelope of standard ranges; not measured heat-analysis values 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

GB/T 3077-2015 Table 1 gives ladle analysis; Table 2 gives P/S and residual-element requirements. The final note to Table 1 allows ordering any grade as higher or special quality by adding A or E after the grade; this record is higher-quality steel. For steel used in hot-pressure working, Cu ≤0.20%; the ordinary Cu maximum does not apply to this use. Explicit alloy ranges in Table 1 take priority; for Cr/Ni/Mo not specified there, use the residual limits in Table 2 and do not add residual limits on top of alloying-element ranges. Sn/Sb/As must be analyzed and recorded on the inspection certificate; any needed limits require agreement, and no generic numerical limits are invented here. Product-analysis deviations are handled separately under GB/T 222 and do not directly expand ladle limits. Mechanical properties depend on specimen dimensions and the recommended heat-treatment/delivery condition; this composition review does not constitute verification of properties.

Applicability and limitations

GB/T 3077—1999 Table 1 heat analysis mass fraction wt%; This record is based on the actual 1999 edition and shall not be replaced by the 2015 edition.. Grades marked A in the table are ordered as high-quality steel.; P/S/Cu and residual Mo in Table 2 are according to the corresponding quality grade.; Residual Cr/Ni/Mo limits do not cover alloy compositions already listed in Table 1.. The chemical compositions of this standard are also applicable to steel ingots, blooms, and their products.; Bar product ranges and mechanical properties/surface quality requirements cannot be directly extended as guarantees for wire cold-heading.. If the processing purpose is not specified in the contract, it shall be treated as machining.; Cu ≤ 0.20% during hot working; please select the corresponding condition.. Clause 6.1.1.2: Residual W/V/Ti shall be analyzed and recorded in the quality certificate; where no unified limit is listed, do not fill in 0.; Alloy W/V/Ti ranges in Table 1 are still retained.. Upgrading to A/E quality or specifying separate compositions according to Table 1 Note 2 requires separate order verification; grades shall not be automatically merged, nor shall the C range of this line be rewritten.. Rare earth 0.05% in Table 1 Note 4 is the calculated addition amount; finished product analysis is for reference only and shall not serve as a guaranteed composition range.. Analysis deviations for finished steel or bloom products shall be verified separately according to the referenced GB/T222–1984; heat analysis limits shall not be automatically relaxed..
