This volume covers standard designations from worldwide standards for cast irons and steels, wrought carbon and alloy steels, stainless steels, high strength steels, and tool steels.
Entries are provided for more than 30,000 alloy designations. Well over 5000 entries have been updated, and more than 3000 are brand new additions. In particular, the Fifth Edition features expanded coverage for specifications and designations from Japan, China, India, and South Korea.
Listings include specification or standard number and title, steel designation or grade, chemical composition, product form and condition, tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, and hardness values. The volume includes a comprehensive alloy index and index of standards (by designation).
The updated Fifth Edition incorporates the many changes in the specifications and designations of irons and steels that have occurred over the past several years. It also covers more countries, more alloys, and more standards than previous editions, while keeping obsolete designations for those persons trying to duplicate equipment from old documents.
