(Specification)Standard Specification for Steel, Sheet, for Porcelain Enameling
Standard Specification for Steel, Sheet, for Porcelain Enameling
ABSTRACT
This specification covers standard requirements for sheet steel in coils and cut lengths for porcelain enameling. Heat analysis of Type I, Type II, and Type III steels shall conform to the prescribed chemical composition for carbon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, and others. However, an exception is made on carbon, since heat analysis of carbon is not appropriate for Type I. The material shall also conform to the required mechanical properties such as bending and formability.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers sheet steel in coils and cut lengths for porcelain enameling. The compositions and processing of these steels are such that articles for porcelain enameling may be fabricated from them and, under proper conditions, enameled. The steels are furnished as Type I, Type II, and Type III. Type I and Type II are supplied in two designations, Commercial Steel and Drawing Steel. Type III steel is interstitial-free and does not require a designation.
1.2 The 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 non-conformance with the standard.
1.3 Tolerances are found in General Requirements Specifications A568/A568M and A635/A635M. The appropriate General Requirements specification is applied based on the thickness and width of the product ordered.

This document is not an ASTM standard and is intended only to provide the user of an ASTM standard an indication of what changes have been made to the previous version. Because
it may not be technically possible to adequately depict all changes accurately, ASTM recommends that users consult prior editions as appropriate. In all cases only the current version
of the standard as published by ASTM is to be considered the official document.

4.1.1 Type I steel has an extremely low carbon level achieved through sheet decarburization. This material is suitable for direct
cover coat enameling practice, but this requirement must be indicated by the purchaser in accordance with 5.1.6. This material is
also suitable for ground and cover coat enameling practice. It has good sag resistance and good formability.
4.1.2 Type II steel is suitable for applications where ground and cover coat enameling operations are employed. The
composition of the Type II steel is obtained in melting operations.
4.1.3 Type III is an interstitial-free steel and is suitable for applications where ground and cover coat enameling operations are
