Steel Standart

DC01 equivalent grades: ASTM, EN, JIS, GB, DIN

DC01 is cold-rolled low-carbon steel for cold forming specified in EN 10130. Every grade in the database that can stand in for it is listed below, drawn from 7 standard systems, each with the reason it does or does not match exactly. The full DC01 data sheet carries the composition and mechanical tables.

Last updated

For DC01 the exact matches are CR1, DC01, IS 513 CR1 and 1 more, and material bought as one is accepted as the other without deviation. CS Type B, DC03, 08kp / 08ps differ by one requirement, which is a line on the order rather than a redesign. SAE 1010, DC04, S235JR and 2 more serve in the same applications, but the composition differs enough that the engineer signs it off, not the buyer. Across systems that is 1 in BS (superseded British), 1 in GB/T (China), 1 in IS (India), 1 in JIS (Japan), 2 in ASTM / ASME, 5 in EN (European), 1 in GOST (Russia/CIS).
