1.1This specification covers hot-wrought, special quality microalloyed carbon steel bars intended for use as hot forging stock. The bars shall be hot-wrought, as-wrought, unless thermal treatment is necessary to ensure cold shearability.
1.2The bars shall be furnished to chemical composition only. Chemical composition is based on standard carbon steel grades modified to include microalloying elements such as columbium (niobium), vanadium, or molybdenum. Desired mechanical properties are developed in the subsequent hot forging and controlled cooling operations.
1.3Sections and sizes of bar steel available are covered in Specification A29/A29M.
1.4Supplementary Requirements S1 to S6 are provided for use when additional controls or requirements are desired. These shall apply only when specified on the purchase order.
1.5The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text and tables, SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification.
1.6Unless the order specifies the applicable “M” specification designation, the material shall be furnished to the inch-pound units.
