Other modes of deliveries if justified by the quality requirements of the parts either for manufacturing or for end use, cam be specially agreed (0 at the time of enquiry and order. 2. For modes of deliveries with hardenability/mechanical properties guarantee minor variation from chemi- cal composition from Table 2 is permissible. 3. For closer bands of hardenability and acceptance level of cleanliness by step down test, agreement should ibe made at the time of enquiry and order. 4. Cleanliness rating by step down test/Blue fracture test is not applicable to free cutting steel. « MANUFACTURE 4.1 Unless otherwise agreed to in the order, the processes used in making the steel and the pro- duct shall be left to the discretion of the manufacturer, but the steel shall be fully killed. ‘When so desired, the purchaser shall be informed of the steel making process. However, for continuously cast steels and for steels in specially treated condition, like Electro- flux refined, Vacuum degassed, Secondary refined, etc, the steel making process should be agreed to-af the time of enqu ry and order. For continuously cast bar/billets, a minimum reduction ratio of 6 : 1 between the cast product and the final product is recommended. However other reduction ratios may be mutually agreed upon between the manufacturer and the purcha- ser at the time of enquiry and order. 4.2 The steels may be made by agreement with ‘the addition of micro alloying elements like Titanium, Niobium Vanadium, Boron, etc, either individually or in combination. 43 Sufficient reduction and discard shall be made to ensure freedom from piping, harmful segregation, etc, as assessed by macroetching and/or ultrasonic testing. The acceptance stand- ard shall be mutually agreed upon at the time of enquiry and order. 5 FREEDOM FROM DEFECTS 5.1 The material shall be free from such surface and internal defects which may impair the end use. The method of evaluating surface and internal defects and their allowable limits shall be mutually agreed to at the time of enquiry and order. 5.2 Removal of surface defects, by appropriate means, shall be permitted provided that the remaining dimensions, after defect removal is notless than specified at any point of the bar or billet, etc, and that the operation is not likely to affect the processing of the material. Removal of surface defects beyond this level may be permitted only on approval of the purchaser. 6 CHEMICAL COMPOSITION 6.1 The ladle analysis _of steels shall be as given in Table 2. The analysis of steels shall be carried out either by the method specified in IS 228 and its relevant parts or any other established instrumental;chemical method. In case of any dispute the procedure given in 1S 228 and its relevant parts. shall be referee method. However, where method is not given in 1S 228 and its relevant parts, the referee method shall be as agreed to between the purchaser and the manufacturer. 6.2 Check Analysis The check analysis shall be carried out on the finished product. The permissible variation of the check analysis for the limit specified in Table 2 shall be as given in Table 3. 1S 5517: 1993 6.3 Elements not specified in Table 2 shall not be added to the steels except where agreed to, other than for the purpose of finishing the heat, and shall not exceed the following limits, if present: Constituent Percent, Max Chrointum 0-25 Nickel 0-25 Copper 0-35 Vanadium 0-05 Molybdenum 0-05 Boron 0-000 3 Tin 0-05 NOTES 1.
