## Chemical composition

What this alloy is

Fe Mn C P

Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 99.2 % Mn — 0.6 % C — 0.2 % P — 0.1 % Traces & impurities · 0 %

Logarithmic scale, 0.01 % to 100 % — every value here compares directly, decade by decade.

| Element | % by weight |
|---|---|
| C | ≤ 0.15 |
| Mn | ≤ 0.6 |
| P | ≤ 0.05 |
| S | ≤ 0.04 |

Carbon Manganese Phosphorus Sulfur

0.01 % 0.1 % 1 % 10 % 100 %

The scale is logarithmic, not the element’s raw share of the alloy — the only honest way to fit 0.01 % and 100 % in one picture, and it means every value here can be compared with every other.

| Element | As published source text, verbatim | Min% by weight | Max% by weight | Bound |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| C | max 0.15 | — | 0.150 | Max |
| P | max 0.050 | — | 0.050 | Max |
| S | max 0.040 | — | 0.040 | Max |
| Mn | max 0.60 | — | 0.600 | Max |

The published column is the source string byte-for-byte, decimal comma and all; Min and Max are the parsed bounds. Elements not listed have no value on file — they are omitted, never inferred.

## Predicted transformation temperatures

Not enough recorded composition to predict a transformation temperature for this grade — missing: Si, Ni, Cr, Mo.

## Physical & mechanical properties

An absent property means we hold no value for it — it is left out rather than estimated, interpolated from a neighbouring grade, or filled from a handbook. It does not mean the property is undefined for the material.
