Carbon-equivalent reference

Estimate from manufacturer-published ranges, not a standard guarantee or measured heat result; formula applicability requires review against the application and process.

IIW / CEV：0.7150–0.8967Known-element contribution; incomplete value; missing V 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）：0.4775–0.5767Known-element contribution; incomplete value; missing V, B 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：0.5150–0.6200 Envelope of independent element limits from manufacturer data; neither standard guarantee values nor measured heat results 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

Shagang Q/320582 SGY503-2024 (edition 1), Table 1, row 53 (PDF page 6), cast analysis wt%; original grades and values of this edition are shown independently. Orders and actual supply require separate confirmation; this is not a supply commitment by Creation Group.

Composition conditions

2024, 1st edition, Table 1: heat analysis, mass fraction wt%; a dash is not zero.
Clause 6.1.3 residual limits: Cr≤0.20%, Ni≤0.20%, Cu≤0.20%, Mo≤0.05%; where Table 1 specifies otherwise, follow the grade entry.
AlT is the lower limit for total aluminium; B has a separate column, and Ti, V, etc. are in notes; preserve grade suffixes exactly as printed in this edition.
Table 2: oxygen≤30×10⁻⁶ and nitrogen≤70×10⁻⁶; these are not alloy-element fields in mass fraction wt%.
Measured hardness and mechanical data in Clauses 6.10/6.11 are not delivery requirements; no generic properties are entered.
