【国外标准】 Standard Specification for Zinc-5 % Aluminum-Mischmetal Alloy-Coated Carbon Steel Wire

This specification covers soft, medium and hard temper zinc-5% aluminum-mischmetal alloy-coated carbon steel wire in coils for general use. The product is intended for applications requiring corrosion resistance, drawability, and formability. The wire is classified with regard to mechanical properties by temper, which is related to tensile strength and stiffness. Zn-5AL-MM alloy coating on the wire is classified in a number of classes: 1, 3 or A, 60, B, 100, and C. The steel from which the wire is produced shall be made by any commercially accepted steelmaking process. The tensile strength of the coated wire shall be determined and the weight and adherence of the coatings shall be measured.1.1 This specification covers soft, medium, and hard temper zinc-5 % aluminum-mischmetal (Zn-5 Al-MM) alloy-coated carbon steel wire in coils for general use. The product is intended for applications requiring corrosion resistance, drawability, and formability.1.2 This specification is applicable to orders in either inch-pound units (as A856) or acceptable SI units [as A856M]. Inch-pound units and SI units are not necessarily equivalent; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other, without combining values in any way.1.3 This specification references notes and footnotes which provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be considered as requirements of this specification.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
