    This document compares the chemical and tensile requirements for steel grades ASTM A242 and A588 GR A. It shows that A242 has lower maximums for carbon, manganese, and phosphorus than A588 GR A, but similar maximums for sulfur. A588 GR A allows for silicon, nickel, chromium, copper, and vanadium within specified ranges. Both grades require similar minimum tensile strengths, yield points, and elongations for 8-inch and 2-inch specimens.
