1.1This specification covers carbon and low-alloy steel castings having chemical analyses similar to that of the standard wrought grades.

1.2Several classes are covered and are designated by chemical composition as shown in Table 1.

1.3Options for tensile properties are shown in Tables 2 and 3.

(A)“X” denotes that the properties may be achieved by at least one of the heat treatments referenced in 5. The effect of section thickness should be considered in making grade selections. The heat treatment requirements do not imply that all section thicknesses will be through hardened.

(B)These grades significantly exceed the minimum strength levels; therefore, they may be unsuitable for use due to weldability, and machinability issues.

1.4The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the standard.

1.4.1Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets.

1.5This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
