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.

Carbon-equivalent reference
Estimates are presented separately for each applicable composition condition. Match the actual ordering conditions; ranges must not be combined.
Measured total aluminium (Alt) ≥ 0.020%
Measured total aluminium (Alt) ≥ 0.020%; Provided hardenability and mechanical requirements are met, the agreed B minimum is 0.0005%
Measured acid-soluble aluminium (Als) ≥ 0.015%
Measured acid-soluble aluminium (Als) ≥ 0.015%; Provided hardenability and mechanical requirements are met, the agreed B minimum is 0.0005%

Applicability and limitations
GB/T6478-2015, Table 4, heat-analysis mass percentages. ; 6.1.5 residual Cr/Ni/Cu are each ≤.20%; tabulated alloy Cr is not subject to the residual Cr maximum. ; 6.1.7 product-analysis tolerances follow GB/T222 and do not widen the default heat-analysis range; Where Sn is unspecified, limits from a newer edition are not inserted. ; Specific dimensions, product condition and mechanical-property conditions require separate verification; composition alone does not establish suitability for forming a component. ; Alt is total aluminum ≥.020%; when measuring acid-soluble aluminum, Als≥.015% applies; no maximum is specified; The Al field must be interpreted according to the selected measurement basis. ; Table 4 Note a: the lower limit of Si may be agreed to be lower than .10%; the specific agreed range is unknown and shall not be filled in arbitrarily. ; Note b: when hardenability and mechanical properties meet the requirements, the B lower limit may be relaxed to .0005%; Selecting this condition does not represent that performance verification has been completed.
