Carbon-equivalent reference

IIW / CEV：0.4233–0.5967 Known-item contribution, not a complete value; missing Cr, Mo, V, Ni, Cu 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）：0.3700–0.4917 Known-item contribution, not a complete value; missing Cu, Cr, Ni, Mo, 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：0.3900–0.5300 Known-item contribution, not a complete value; missing Mo, Cr, Cu, Ni 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

SAE J1268 MAY2010 official English original Table 1, ladle analysis mass fraction wt%, H-steel hardenability band materials. ; Table 1 Note 1: When electric furnace melting is specified or required, the grade shall have an E prefix, P/S each ≤.025%, and shall be separated from ordinary H grades. ; Table 1 Note 2 Boron steel B .0005–.003%; Unlisted residual alloying elements shall not be arbitrarily matched to J403/J404 values; unspecified elements shall not be assumed zero. ; The permissible composition range for H-steels is established to satisfy the hardenability band and shall not be merged with grades of the same name without H. ; Finished product analysis tolerances must be separately determined according to SAE J409 Table 1/3; Hardenability curves, grain size, delivery conditions, and cold heading supply shall be separately verified.
