AS2074 Cast Steel

Originated as AS B27 - 1931 and AS E7 - 1938. After consultation with stakeholders in both countries, Standards Australia and Standards New Zealand decided to develop this Standard as an Australian, rather than an Australian/New Zealand Standard. 

The objective of this Standard is to specify the steel specifications, heat treatment and test requirements for cast steels. 

AS 2074 - 1982 specified additional requirements, including fettling and dressing, freedom from defects, rectification of defects and certification. These additional requirements are now specified in AS 4738. This edition of the Standard is a standard of materials. 

This Standard specifies requirements for carbon, low alloy and high alloy cast steels.

NOTES:

1. Advice and recommendations on information for optional test requirements to be supplied by the purchaser at the time of enquiry or order are contained in Appendix A.

2. A summary of chemical composition and tensile properties of steels included in this Standard is given in Appendix B, which also provides guidance on the selection of grades for specific applications.

3. AS 2074 only specifies materials. AS 4738 specifies the other additional requirements of the casting.

The following sheet is the comparison of materials between AS2074 and BS3100. As for the specific chemical components, please refer to the link of BS3100 Standard.
