GOST STEEL GRADES
Russian & CIS Standard High-Strength Engineering Steel Grades for Defense, Heavy Machinery & Infrastructure
GOST STEEL GRADES SUPPLIER IN MUMBAI
GOST steel grades, originating from Russian/CIS standards, are used in India, primarily for infrastructure, defense, and heavy machinery, often imported or used to match specifications of Soviet-era machinery.
- Quality Carbon Steel (GOST 1050): Grades 20, 35, and 45 are widely used for machine parts, shafts, and gears.
- Low-Alloy Structural Steel (GOST 19281): 09G2C is frequently used in high-strength, low-temperature applications such as pressure vessels and heavy-duty machinery.
- Alloy Engineering Steel (GOST 4543): 40Kh (40Cr), 40KhN, and 30KhGSA are used for engineering parts requiring high fatigue and wear resistance.
Steel Mart is a premier stockholder and supplier of genuine GOST standard steel rounds, flats, and plates in Mumbai, supporting specialized defense contractors, heavy engineering OEMs, and maintenance plants.

We supply GOST Steel products in multiple finish conditions depending on application demands:
- Hot Rolled / Forged: Normalized or annealed condition with mill scale for heavy structural cuts.
- Peeled / Turned: Bright turned finish with accurate outer diameter tolerances for shaft manufacturing.
- Ground & Polished: Centerless ground surface finish for precision bearings and pins.
Recommended heat treatment procedures for GOST steel grades:
- Annealing: Heat to 840°C – 860°C, slow furnace cooling.
- Normalizing: Heat to 860°C – 880°C, cool in open air to refine grain structure.
- Quenching & Tempering: Oil quench at 830°C – 860°C followed by high tempering (500°C – 600°C) for maximum toughness.
Key industrial applications for GOST steel grades:
- Defense & Heavy Engineering: Armor pins, heavy gear shafts, transmission rods, specialized military vehicles.
- Bearing & Wear Tooling (SHKH15): Ball and roller bearings, precision shafts, cold forming dies.
- Low-Temperature Equipment (09G2C): Arctic climate structures, pressure vessels, boilers, heavy bridge components.
