Applicability and limitations
ASTM A576-17 applies to hot-finished bars of quality carbon steel; Table 1 specifies heat analysis; This must not be assumed to guarantee the performance of wire rod or finished cold-heading products.. ; Table 1 Note C: Si shall be according to order agreement when required, commonly ≤0.10, 0.10–0.20, 0.15–0.35, or 0.20–0.40%.; Do not enter a fixed Si value if not agreed upon. ; Table 1 Note D: When Cu is required, Cu≥0.20% may be specified, which is a conditional requirement.. ; Notes E/F/G: Pb, B, and Bi/Ca/Se/Te are all applicable only when specified.; Do not automatically add Pb/B lower limits to all grades. ; Clause 7.1 requires reporting the content of Cu/Cr/Ni/Mo/V/Nb; the reporting requirement is not equivalent to the provision of limits for these elements in Table 1.. ; Clause 5.1 allows other chemical ranges to be agreed upon according to Table 2.; Table 2 does not impose additional mandatory limits on every grade in Table 1.. ; Table 1, Note H: These grades are usually not produced to the specified Si limits for machinability reasons; do not infer a Si range..
