Designation: A1008/A1008M – 12

Standard Specification for


Steel, Sheet, Cold-Rolled, Carbon, Structural, High-Strength
Low-Alloy, High-Strength Low-Alloy with Improved
Formability, Solution Hardened, and Bake Hardenable1
This standard is issued under the fixed designation A1008/A1008M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the
year of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last
reapproval. A superscript epsilon (´) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.

E
The purchaser has the option of restricting the nitrogen content. It should be noted that, depending on the microalloying scheme (for example, use of vanadium) of
the producer, nitrogen may be a deliberate addition. Consideration should be made for the use of nitrogen binding elements (for example, vanadium, titanium).

For carbon levels less than or equal to 0.02 % vanadium, columbium, or titanium, or a combination thereof, are permitted to be used as stabilizing elements at the

These typical mechanical properties apply to the full range of steel sheet thicknesses. The yield strength tends to increase, the elongation decreases and some of the
formability values tend to decrease as the sheet thickness decreases.

The typical mechanical property values presented here are nonmandatory. They are provided to assist the purchaser in specifying a suitable steel for a given
application. Values outside of these ranges are to be expected.

The ISO standards listed below may be reviewed for ISO 3574 Cold-Reduced Carbon Steel Sheet of Commercial
comparison with this ASTM standard. The relationship be- and Drawing Qualities
tween the standards may only be approximate; therefore, the ISO 4997 Cold-Reduced Steel Sheet of Structural Quality
respective standards should be consulted for actual require-

ments. Those who use these documents must determine which

specifications address their needs.

X3. HARDNESS PROPERTIES

TABLE X3.1 Typical Hardness Values


NOTE 1—The hardness values shown are at the time of shipment.
NOTE 2—Test for hardness shall be conducted in accordance with the
requirements of Test Methods E18.
NOTE 3—The hardness values are Rockwell B scale as measured or
converted from the appropriate Rockwell scales.
NOTE 4—The typical hardness values apply to the full range of steel
sheet thickness. Hardness tends to increase as the steel sheet thickness
decreases.
NOTE 5—Hardness testing is commonly used to assess the relative
formability of various designations of uncoated steel sheet. This assess-
ment done by many users is recognized to be only an approximation of the
relative formability and therefore cannot be used as a specification
requirement.
