Description

This specification covers hot-finished or cold-finished bars except bars for reforging.

It includes rounds, squares, and hexagons, and hot-rolled or extruded shapes, such as angles, tees, and channels in the more commonly used types of stainless steels.

The bars shall be furnished in one of the following conditions:

  • Condition A in which the bars are annealed,
  • Condition H in which the bars are hardened and tempered at a relative temperature,
  • Condition T in which the bars are hardened and tempered at a relatively high temperature,
  • Condition S in which the bars are strain hardened or relatively light cold worked, and
  • Condition B in which the bars are relatively severe cold worked.

The material shall be subjected to a mechanical test to determine its tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, and Brinell hardness.

Scope

1. This specification covers hot-finished or cold-finished bars except bars for reforging (Note 1). It includes rounds, squares, and hexagons, and hot-rolled or extruded shapes, such as angles, tees, and channels in the more commonly used types of stainless steels. The free-machining types (Note 2) for general corrosion resistance and high temperature service are covered in a separate specification.

NOTE 1: For bars for reforging, see Specification A314.

NOTE 2: For free-machining stainless bars designed especially for optimum machinability, see Specification A582/A582M.

NOTE 3: There are standards covering high nickel, chromium, austenitic corrosion, and heat-resisting alloy materials. These standards are under the jurisdiction of ASTM Subcommittee B02.07 and may be found in Annual Book of ASTM Standards, Vol. 02.04.

2. The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard. The inch-pound units shall apply unless the “M” designation of this specification is specified in the order.
