Cu+10Sn≤0.60wt%; Separate listings of Cu ≤0.60 and Sn ≤0.06 are only envelopes derived from a linked formula under the premise of non-negative values; both cannot be used at their upper limits simultaneously. Table 3 Note a: Elements not listed shall not be intentionally added without the purchaser's consent (except additions needed to finish steelmaking); blanks shall not be filled as zero. Table 3 Note b: When hardenability is specified, C may deviate slightly according to restricted conditions; Table 3 compositions are not automatically relaxed by default.
