STEEL,LOW CARBON OR HSLA Engineering Standard Number
1. Scope
1.1. This specification is for hot rolled low carbon or high-strength low alloy steel sheet
and strip in the pickled and oiled condition which is supplied to minimum tensile yield point.
1.2. Material which conforms to ASTM A570, Grade 50 or ASTM A607, Grade 50 may
meet this specification.
2. Applicable Documents
Applicable documents listed below may be obtained from the respective organizations listed in
CES 10054.
3. Definitions
There are no unique definitions in this specification.
4. Specification
4.1. Significance and Use
4.1.1. This specification is for hot rolled low carbon or high-strength low alloy steel sheet and
strip in the pickled and oiled condition which is supplied to minimum tensile yield point.
4.1.2. Material is intended to be used for parts which may require minimum mechanical
properties. Material can be fabricated by moderate cold bending, moderate hot forming, punching,
and welding. Material is also suitable for general purpose machining.
4.1.3. Acceptance limits are statistically significant as indicated in CES 99020 unless
specifically excepted.
Chemical composition shall be specified by Appendix A, Table 1 when tested in accordance with
ASTM A751.
4.4.2. When tested in accordance with ASTM E290, material shall be capable of being bent at
room temperature in any direction through 90 degrees with an inside radius of two and one- half
thickness (2 1/2 T) without cracking on the outside of the bend.
4.5. Structure
4.6.1. Material shall be supplied in the mill pickled and oiled condition with cut or slit edge.
