5 Low-alloyed steels for machine structure use - Specification 1 Scope This Malaysian Standard specifies the low-alloyed steels for machine structural use (hereafter referred to as steels ), which are manufactured by hot forming such as hot rolling and hot forging. Steels are normally used after further forming such as forging and cutting and heat treatment or nitriding. Depending on the thickness, steel plates and steel strip may include those subjected to cold rolling in addition to those manufactured by hot forming. 2 Normative references The following normative references are indispensable for the application of this standard.
