Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see www .iso

3.1
case-hardening steels
steels with a relatively low carbon content, which are carburized or carbonitrided on their surface and
subsequently hardened
Note 1 to entry: These steels, after hardening, have a high degree of hardness in the surface zone and good
resistance to wear, while the core material is characterized principally by extreme toughness.
Note 2 to entry: Further, possibilities for heat treatment of case-hardening steels are, for example, nitrocarburizing
and nitriding.

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the

case-hardening steels
structural steels with a relatively low carbon content, which are carburized or carbonitrided on their
surface and subsequently hardened
Note 1 to entry: These steels, after hardening, have a high degree of hardness in the surface zone and good
resistance to wear, while the core material is characterized principally by extreme toughness.
Note 2 to entry: Further, possibilities for heat treatment of case-hardening steels are, for example, nitrocarburizing
and nitriding.

7 Requirements
7.1 Chemical composition, hardness and hardenability
7.1.1 General
Table 1 gives a survey on combinations of usual heat-treatment conditions at delivery, product forms
and requirements as specified in Tables 3 to 7 (chemical composition, hardenability, maximum hardness
and hardness range).
7.1.2 Hardenability
Unless otherwise agreed for alloy steels, the hardenability requirements given in Table 5 apply. If
agreed at the time of enquiry and order, alloy steels with restricted hardenability scatter bands given
in Table 6 or shown in Figure 1 shall be supplied.
7.1.3 Chemical composition
The chemical composition determined by cast analysis shall comply with the values in Table 3.
Permissible deviations between the limiting values for cast analysis and the values for product analysis
are given in Table 4.
The product analysis shall be carried out when specified, at the time of the enquiry and order (see A.3).
7.2 Machinability
All steels are machinable in the conditions “soft-annealed”, “treated to hardness range”, “treated to
ferrite/pearlite structure” and “normalized.
Where improved machinability is required, the grades with a specified sulfur range should be ordered
b
and/or with a specific treatment to improve machinability (see also Table 3, footnote ).
7.3 Cold shearability
7.3.1 Under suitable shearing conditions (avoiding local stress peaks, preheating, application of blades
with a profile adapted to that of the product, etc.), all steels are cold shearable in the condition “soft-
annealed”.
7.3.2 Steel grades 28Cr4, 28CrS4, 20MnCr5, 20MnCrS5, 24CrMo4, 24CrMoS4, 22CrMoS3-5, 20MoCr4,
20MoCrS4, 16NiCr4, 16NiCrS4, 18NiCr5-4, 17CrNi6-6, 15NiCr13, 17NiCrMo6-4 and 18CrNiMo7-6, are,
under suitable conditions, also cold shearable when delivered in the condition “treated to improve
shearability” with the hardness requirements given in Table 7.
7.3.3 The non-alloy steels and steels 17Cr3, 17CrS3, 20Cr4, 20CrS4, 16MnCr5, 16MnCrS5, 16MnCrB5,
18CrMo4, 18CrMoS4, 20NiCrMo2-2 and 20NiCrMoS2-2 are, under suitable conditions, cold shearable
when delivered in the untreated condition.
7.4 Grain size
Unless otherwise agreed at the time of enquiry and order, the steel shall show a fine grain structure
with an austenitic grain size of 5 and finer, when tested in accordance with ISO 643. For verification,
see A.1.

ISO/FDIS 683-3:2018(E)
7.5 Non-metallic inclusions
7.5.1 Microscopic inclusions
The special steels shall have a certain degree of cleanness, however, verification of the non-metallic
inclusion content requires a special agreement. If there is such an agreement at the time of enquiry and
order, the microscopic non-metallic inclusion content shall be determined to an agreed procedure and
within agreed limits in accordance with ISO 4967 or another regional standard.
For grades with specified minimum sulfur content, the agreement should not include sulphides.
7.5.2 Macroscopic inclusions
This requirement is applicable to the verification of the macroscopic inclusions in special steels. If
verification is agreed, the method and acceptance limits shall be agreed at the time of enquiry and order.
7.6 Internal soundness
Where appropriate, requirements relating to the internal soundness of the products shall be agreed at
the time of inquiry and order (see A.2).
7.7 Surface condition
7.7.1 All products shall have a smooth surface finish appropriate to the manufacturing processes
applied.
7.7.2 Minor surface imperfections which may occur under normal manufacturing conditions, such as
prints originating from rolled-in scale, are not to be regarded as defects.
7.7.3 Bars and wire rod are delivered with surface class 1za2 in accordance with ISO 9443 and
hot-rolled plates and wide flats shall be delivered with a surface in accordance with ISO 7788, unless
otherwise agreed at the time of enquiry and order.
Where no International Standard on the surface quality of steel products exists, detailed requirements
referring to this characteristic shall, where appropriate, be agreed at the time of enquiry and order.
It is more difficult to detect and eliminate surface discontinuities from coiled products than from cut
lengths. This should be taken into account when agreements on surface quality are made.
NOTE Bars and wire rod for cold heading and cold extrusion are covered fully by ISO 4954.
7.7.4 If suitability of bars and rod for bright drawing is required
