ZG45 China Steel

ZG45 China Steel

ZG45 China Steel

(OP)
Does anyone know the US equivalent for ZG45 China Steel.

RE: ZG45 China Steel

ZG45  is a coating weight specification. It doesnt tell us anything about the substrate material.

We need more information.

Thanks

RE: ZG45 China Steel

(OP)
The only other detail that I have is that it's die-cast and has a compressive strength of 310-570.
Thanks

RE: ZG45 China Steel

Hmmmmm... Ah... Google comes through again....:

All I did to get this info was google it a few different ways.....

The full description of the new spec is:

China GB  5676 ZG310-570(ZG45)   F   cast steel, carbon   
(courtesy of Maryland Metrics)


ZG310-570
Carbon:  0.50 Manganese: 0.90 Silicon: 0.60
Yield strength: 310 MPa
Ultimate Tensile Strength: 570 MPa
% of some measured value (possibly elongation): 15%
% of some measured value (I have no clue): 21%
AK in KJ/m^2: 300 (possibly impact values?)
 
ZG45
Carbon: 0.42~0.52 Manganese: 0.50~0.80 Silicon: 0.20~0.45
Yield: 320MPa
UTS: 580 MPa
Again here's the three values that I dont know what their Variables translate to:
 12%
 20%
 300 KJ/m^2


Here is the webpage I got this info from:

I love materials science!

RE: ZG45 China Steel

Nick,

I will jump out on a limb and guess that those mystery numbers are elongation, reduction in area, and Charpy impact energy.

Regards,

Cory

RE: ZG45 China Steel

Thats what I'd thought, but didnt want to mis-lead. Wonder if I'll get a star?
