Carbon-equivalent reference
Estimates are presented separately for each applicable composition condition. Match the actual ordering conditions; ranges must not be combined.
Main-text Table 2 of 2005 gives default composition: B≥0.0008%, Si0.10—0.35%
Only when Table 2, note 2 is adopted by agreement: B≥0.0005%; Si remains within the default range, and any low-Si agreement must be checked separately.

Applicability and limitations
The original Japanese edition JIS G 3508-2:2005, main-text Table 1 lists SWCHB223 wire; The corresponding wire-rod designation is SWRCHB223, omitting R under Table 1, note 1; these two product forms are not merged. ; Main-text Table 1 permits processes D and DA; D means cold working completed; DA combines cold working and annealing; mechanical values in Table 2/3 must be distinguished by process. ; Clause 4 for this wire references JIS G 3508-1 as the material standard; composition is transcribed from the verified original main-text Table 1/2 in Part 1 of the actual 2005 edition; This is not an independent chemical-composition table in the second part. ; Default B minimum ≥0.0008%; ≥0.0005% applies only by agreement between both parties; Low Si applies only by agreement; agreed limits must not be treated as defaults. ; Mechanical properties in Table 2/3 must be viewed under the separate process and wire-diameter conditions; Decarburization, spheroidization, dimensional and surface requirements are not replaced by this mechanical-table verification; actual supply requires separate confirmation. ; Clause 2 of the second part is an undated reference, pointing to the latest applicable edition; The composition currently shown follows only the obtained and verified historical first-part text from 2005; equivalence with other editions is not established.

- Select the actual D/DA process and wire diameter; other processes require agreement between the parties and must not be assumed applicable.
- Rm is an upper tensile-strength limit and Z a lower reduction-of-area limit; Z is not elongation A. 1 N/mm²=1 MPa.
- The entire HRB column is explicitly reference-only in the source; it is not a hardness guarantee.
- For Process D with d≥20 mm, the lower limit of Z is changed from 45 to 40% (reduction of 5); Z is not specified for d≤3 mm; do not fill as 0.
- Note 1 of DA Table 3 refers to Table 2 values. Z at d≥20 mm is withheld pending verification; do not silently change the reference to Table 3 or choose 50/40%.
- Clause 10.1 takes 1 specimen for the same heat, size and heat treatment. Clause 10.2 uses tensile specimen No. 9 under JIS Z2241/Z2201; 9A/9B require agreement. These references are undated; do not invent edition years.
- The decarburization and spheroidization clauses list SWCH30K—SWCH50K, whereas this standard concerns the SWCHB series. Grade applicability remains to be verified; do not automatically apply them to these 12 grades.
