Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing Intemational 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 riaht to be represented on that committee. Internaticnal organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO ccllaborates closely with the Intemational Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an Intemational Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Intemational Standard ISO 683-17 was prepared by Te:hnical Committee ISO/TC 17, Stee), Subcommittee SC 4,
Heat treatable and alloy steels. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 689-17:1976), which
has been technically revised.
ISO 683 consists of the following parts, under the general title Heat treated steels, alloy steels and free-cuting
steels:
— Part 4: Direet-hardening unalloyed and lew-alloyed wrought steele in form of alfferont black producte
— Part 9: Wrought free-cutting steels
—_ Part 10: Wrought nitriding steels
— Part 11: Wrought case-hardening steols
— Part 14: Hot-rolled steels for quenched and tempered springs
— Part 18: Valve steels for intemal combustion engines
— Part 17: Ball and roller bearing steels
— Part 18: Bright products of unalloyed and low-alloy steels

Supplementary or special requirements
NOTE _ One or more of the following supplementary or special requirements shall be appied but only when specified in the
‘onquiry and order. Details ofthese requirements shall, whore nocessary, be agreed upon by the manufacturer and purchaser
al the time of enquiry and order.
A.1_ Verification of grain size
In cance where verification of the fine grain structure fe epeoitiod, the method for the determination of grain size
according to ISO 643 is also to be agreed upon at the time of enquiry and order.
A2 Distribution of carbides
The carbides shall be distributed as agroed upon in accordance with ISO 5949. When making such agreements, the
‘steel grade and the size of the product shall be taken into account.
Ifthe vetification of the carbide distribution is required, the details of this shall also be agreed upon.
NOTE The size of globular carbides and the share of perite area are not specified in ISO 5949. For these characteristics,
additional requirements may be agreed upon at the lime of enquiry and order.
A.3 Microscopic non-metallic inclusions

procedure (see for example ISO 4967 and ENV 10247), be within agreed limits,
Examples are given in annex B.
A.4 Macroscopic non-metallic inclusion content
‘The macroscopic non-metallic inclusions shall, when being tested according to an/agreed method (see footnote j to
Table 7), be within agreed limits.
A.5 Product analysis
‘One praduct analysis shall be€arried out per east for the determination of all elements for which values are
epecificd for tho cast analyaie of tho tcc! typo conoorneed.
‘The conditions fof'8mpling shall be in accordanee with ISO 14284. In cases of dispute the analysis shall be carried
out, if possible, according to the appropriate internationally standardized method,
A.6 Special agreements for marking
The products shall be marked in a way specially agreed upon at the time of enquiry and order.

Content of microscopic non-metallic inclusions
‘The characterization of non-metallic inclusions is critically important to the fatigue life of bearings. Several methods
for characterization and diagrams may be used such as ISO 4967, ASTM E45, BS 5710, DIN 50602, GOST 1778-
70, JIS GOBSS, NF A04-106, PN 64 H 04510 and SIS 11 11 11.
Tables B.1 and B.2 list the various limits for degrees of purity according to the most widely used standards
ASTM E45 and DIN 50602 criteria. The actual criteria, mathod and limits shall be agreed upon at the time of enquiry
and order.
NOTE In the next edition specifications based on !SO 4967 will be included in the main body of this part of ISO 683,

‘Method A of ASTM E45 expresses the results as ihe average, calculated as the sum of the worat fields (in
each sample) for each inclusion type divided by tre number of samples.
© Method D of ASTM E45 is designed for steel with low inclusion contents, as found in ESR (Electro Slag
Reemelted), VAR (AirVacuum Arc Remelted) and VIM (Vacuum Induction Melted) processed steels.
© The waives are applicable fora sample with a minimum reduction of 8:4
