IS 11169 (Part 1):2022 10C4GC Steel: Specifications & Listings
IS 11169 (Part 1):2022 10C4GC: Cold heading quality non-alloy steel 10C4GC to IS 11169 (Part 1):2022, for parts that are not heat treated after cold heading or cold extrusion, supplied as wire rod, bars or wire of 2 to 100 mm. Maximum tensile strength as hot rolled is 430 MPa.
Cold heading and cold extrusion of parts not heat treated after cold forming; the standard covers bars, wire rods and wires of 2 to 100 mm (clause 1.1, Annex A)
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
