60SI2CR
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.

Applicability and limitations
Heat analysis, mass fractions wt%; Product-analysis tolerances are assessed separately under GB/T222 and are not included in this table. ; Table 1, note b: when required by the purchaser and stated in the contract, residual Cu may be ≤0.20%; Default tabulated limit ≤0.25%. ; 6.1.2: oxygen in 40SiMnVBE is ≤0.0015%; oxygen in other alloy spring steels is ≤0.0025%; This limit is not extended to carbon spring steels. ; Unspecified elements do not mean zero; Spring-steel composition does not establish suitability for every cold-headed component; the specific process requires a separate assessment.
