Supply and technical review · Creation Group accepts supply and technical review enquiries for this product. Dimensions, delivery condition, quantity and inspection documents are confirmed in the order technical agreement after review.
Elements not specified in this table shall not be intentionally added, except where necessary for steelmaking purposes. Note a) May be less than 0.30% upon agreement between supplier and purchaser. b) Upon agreement between supplier and purchaser, the upper limit for Ni + Cr is less than 0.40% for S09CK, S15CK, and S20CK; for other grades, it may also be less than 0.45%.
2. Mechanical properties of wire rod
Mechanical property values shall be determined by agreement between the supplier and the purchaser.

Carbon equivalent calculator — S15CK
Basis: JIS G4051
Chemical composition source: JIS G 4051-2023
Transcribed from the cited standard
The product does not specify a standard edition. Composition uses the verified source edition explicitly cited here. Confirm the contract edition separately; do not assume other editions are identical.
Original source wording
Table 2 and Notes a/b; Clause 6
IIW / CEV
CEV = C + Mn/6 + (Cr + Mo + V)/5 + (Ni + Cu)/15
Confirm the applicable product conditions before calculating the carbon equivalent.
Product dimensions or processing conditions
IIW/CEV: carbon and low-alloy steel weldability screening.
Pcm (Ito–Bessyo)
Pcm = C + Si/30 + (Mn + Cu + Cr)/20 + Ni/60 + Mo/15 + V/10 + 5B
Confirm the applicable product conditions before calculating the carbon equivalent.
Product dimensions or processing conditions
Pcm: mainly low-carbon, low-alloy steels; confirm applicability, particularly when C exceeds 0.11%.
CET
CET = C + (Mn + Mo)/10 + (Cr + Cu)/20 + Ni/40
Confirm the applicable product conditions before calculating the carbon equivalent.
Product dimensions or processing conditions
CET: ferritic-steel preheat assessment; confirm EN 1011-2 conditions.
A stated upper limit means 0 to that limit. A lower limit alone does not define an upper bound. Missing elements are unknown, not zero. Standard-limit combinations are not measured heat results.
Carbon equivalent supports weldability assessment; it does not approve cold heading, fastener strength or a welding procedure. These formulas do not directly apply to stainless steels, cast irons or non-ferrous metals.
