Standard specifications usually cover group of steels for some specific
purpose, such as plates for pressure vessels, seamless or welded tubes for
high or low temperature services, spring steels, etc. In most of specifications,
chemical compositions as well as mechanical properties are given for several
different steel grades.
In your daily work, it is often necessary
- to compare properties of materials specified in the one specific standard, or
- to analyze properties of two different steels nominally recommended for the same application, or
- to compare properties specified in different national standards (JIS vs. ASTM, for example).
Key to Steel is giving you broad insight to relations among
specifications, materials and their properties. By using the right search option,
you are getting your results in mere seconds!

Step 1: Choosing a search option
|
Suppose you would like to see properties of super-alloy sheets defined
in G 4902 Japanese standard.
Your first step is choosing a search option. To search by standard designation
or standard description, you are using Advanced Search.
| |
Step 2: Defining search criteria
|
In the field Standard Number you need to enter standard
specification number. Optionally, you may also select country of
origin from the popup list.
When you click Submit button, Key to Steel search engine will select all
Japanese steels specified by this standard within a few seconds.

Step 3: Selecting a material from the list of the results
|
Searching materials by standard number generally results in list of
materials that satisfy criteria you gave.
Depending on search criteria this list can be quite large, but in
our example results list consists of 11 materials. By clicking on their
designation you can retrieve and review their properties,
cross-reference tables and more...
