## About Cast steel

Cast steel is a ferrous material produced by pouring steel into moulds to form components. It combines the shape-making flexibility of casting with the strength and toughness associated with steel, making it suitable for complex, heavily loaded parts such as machinery components, structural castings and industrial equipment.

This describes the material class as a whole. Always confirm the individual grade against the standard before ordering.

## Chemical composition

 9 elements on file · weight %

What this alloy is

Fe Ni Mn Si

Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 93.9 % Ni — 2.5 % Mn — 1.5 % Si — 0.8 % Traces & impurities · 1.3 %

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

| Element | % by weight |
|---|---|
| C | ≤ 0.22 |
| Si | ≤ 0.8 |
| Mn | ≤ 1.5 |
| P | ≤ 0.04 |
| S | ≤ 0.04 |
| Cr | ≤ 0.5 |
| Mo | ≤ 0.3 |
| Ni | ≤ 2.5 |
| V | ≤ 0.2 |

Carbon Silicon Manganese Phosphorus Sulfur Chromium Molybdenum Nickel Vanadium

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 0.22 | — | 0.220 | Max |
| Si | max 0.8 | — | 0.800 | Max |
| P | max 0.04 | — | 0.040 | Max |
| S | max 0.04 | — | 0.040 | Max |
| V | max 0.2 | — | 0.200 | Max |
| Cr | max 0.5 | — | 0.500 | Max |
| Mn | max 1.5 | — | 1.500 | Max |
| Ni | max 2.5 | — | 2.500 | Max |
| Mo | max 0.3 | — | 0.300 | 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

 computed from composition · °C

Predicted Ae3 784 °C

Predicted Ae1 695 °C

Predicted Acm 457 °C

Predicted Bs 505 °C

These four temperatures are a CALCULATION from this grade's own composition, using the published Li, Niebuhr, Meekisho & Atteridge (1998) model — never a measurement, and computed from the UPPER BOUND of each element's specified range, not a mid-range figure. Where this grade also has a measured transformation point (Ac1, Ac3, Ar1, Ar3) on file, it is shown separately, in Physical & mechanical properties, and is never replaced by the predicted figures here — Ae (predicted, equilibrium) and Ac/Ar (measured, on heating or cooling) are different physical quantities and can differ by tens of degrees; a mismatch between the two is not an error in either.

## 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.
