EN 10083-2:2006 C35 Steel: Specifications & Listings
EN 10083-2:2006 C35: A medium carbon steel for quenching and tempering to EN 10083-2:2006 (steel number 1.0501, non alloy quality steel). Supplied as semi-finished products, bars, rod, wide flats, hot rolled strip, sheet and plate, and forgings. Quenched and tempered tensile strength 630 to 780 MPa for ruling sections up to 16 mm.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
