Full title and description

ГОСТ 535-2005 — Прокат сортовой и фасонный из стали углеродистой обыкновенного качества. Общие технические условия. (English title: Common quality carbon steel bar and shaped sections — General specifications).

Abstract

Standard establishes general technical requirements for hot‑rolled common‑quality carbon steel bars and shaped sections used for general and special purposes, covering grades, chemical composition and mechanical properties, surface quality, dimensional tolerances, acceptance rules, testing methods, marking, packaging and transport.

• Number of pages: Approximately 15–17 pages (commercial listings and catalogues typically show 16 pages).

Scope

Applies to hot‑rolled bar and shaped rolled products made of common‑quality carbon steels intended for general and special applications. The standard sets out requirements for steel grades and marking, allowable chemical composition ranges and mechanical properties, manufacturing tolerances, surface condition, acceptance and sampling rules, required tests (including impact/ductility for some grades), and rules for packaging and transport.

Key topics and requirements

• Scope of product: hot‑rolled section types (bars, angles, channels, profiles) for general/special use.
• Steel grades and chemical composition limits for common‑quality carbon steels (nominal compositions and allowable deviations).
• Mechanical property requirements: tensile strength, yield (where specified), elongation, and — for designated grades — impact toughness and bend/flattening characteristics.
• Dimensional and shape tolerances for sections and bars, including permissible deviations and measurement methods.
• Surface quality and permissible defects; rules for repair, machining allowance, and rejection criteria.
• Acceptance rules: batch/lot acceptance, sampling plans, required test types and documentation (quality certificate requirements).
• Marking, packaging and transport requirements (marking by standard methods; packaging and storage rules referenced to complementary GOSTs).

Typical use and users

Used by steel producers and rolling mills, metal product manufacturers, structural fabricators, procurement and quality assurance departments, testing laboratories, and engineers specifying rolled steel sections for construction, machinery and general fabrication. The standard is commonly referenced in product catalogues and supplier specifications for angles, channels and other shaped rolled sections.

Related standards

References and normative links include earlier national GOSTs and international standards related to steel and testing (examples listed in the standard: ISO 630:1995, ISO 1052:1982 and a range of GOSTs such as GOST 380-2005, GOST 8240-97, GOST 8509-93, GOST 7566 for documentation/packaging, and others cited in the normative references). These related standards cover material grades, test methods, tolerances and packaging.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers product scope (hot‑rolled bars and profiles), steel grades and chemical limits, mechanical property requirements, dimensional tolerances, surface quality, acceptance and sampling procedures, test methods, marking, packaging and transport.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Producers (rolling mills), metal product manufacturers, structural fabricators, procurement/QC teams and testing laboratories use the standard to specify, produce and accept rolled sections for construction, machine building and general industry.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: GOST 535-2005 replaced earlier editions such as GOST 535-88; it is listed as the current (active) technical specification in commercial and normative databases, with introduction into effect on 01 July 2008.
