Overview - ISO 14737:2021 (Carbon and low alloy cast steels)

ISO 14737:2021 specifies requirements for carbon and low alloy cast steel grades for general applications. The third edition defines chemical compositions and recommended mechanical-property ranges for a wide set of cast-steel grade designations (for example GE200, GS200, GS340, G20NiCrMo2–2 and others), and provides informative guidance on welding and cross-references to similar UNS cast grades. The standard is intended to support consistent selection, supply and testing of steel castings for general engineering use.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Chemical composition: Defined mass-fraction limits for carbon, silicon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur and alloying elements (Cr, Mo, Ni, V, Cu) are given in tabulated form (Table 1). Some grades include element-sum limits to align with related standards.
  • Mechanical properties: Informative mechanical-property ranges (tensile strength, yield, elongation, Charpy impact energy) and typical thickness dependencies are provided (Table 2). Values are for room temperature and include guidance on test block thickness.
  • Heat treatment: Heat-treatment options (normalizing, quench & temper, normalize & temper) are described; the type and parameters are usually for agreement between purchaser and manufacturer. Some heat-treatment details in Table 2 are non-mandatory information.
  • Test methods and quality: Tensile and impact tests are to be performed per ISO 6892‑1 and ISO 148‑1 respectively. General delivery conditions, supplementary requirements and marking refer to ISO 4990.
  • Welding guidance and UNS mapping: Annex A supplies guidance data for preheat, interpass and post‑weld heat treatment. Annex B lists UNS cast grades similar to ISO grade designations (not necessarily exact equivalents).

Applications and who uses ISO 14737

ISO 14737 is used by:

  • Foundries and steel casters for specifying cast-steel grades and verifying chemical controls.
  • Materials and design engineers selecting cast-steel grades for general engineering components (e.g., housings, machine parts and general-purpose castings).
  • Procurement/specification authors who require standard grade designations and test/marking requirements.
  • Quality, inspection and testing laboratories that perform tensile and Charpy testing to the referenced ISO methods.
  • Welding engineers who need guidance on preheat, interpass temperatures and post-weld heat treatment for cast steels.

Keywords: ISO 14737:2021, carbon and low alloy cast steels, cast steel grades, chemical composition, mechanical properties, heat treatment, welding guidance, ISO 4990, ISO 6892-1, ISO 148-1.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see www .iso .org/
iso/ foreword .html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 17, Steel, Subcommittee SC 11, Steel
castings.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 14737:2015), which has been technically
revised. The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— new Note was inserted in the Scope; previous Note 1 for Annex B was renumbered as Note 2;
— “Terms and Definitions” added as new Clause 3; subsequent Clauses were renumbered;
— footnote “a” to limit Cr, Mo, Ni, V, and Cu was added to GE200, GS200, GE240, and GS240 in Table 1.
This makes it consistent with EN 10293;
— correction of thickness, t, for G10MnMoV6-3 in Table 2;
— correction of tempering temperature range for G25NiCrMo2-2.
