ASTM A 555/A 555M Document Information:
Title
Standard Specification for General Requirements for Stainless Steel Wire and Wire Rods
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Sep 1, 2005
Scope:
(Footnote *)
This specification covers general requirements that shall apply to
stainless wire and wire rods.
Wire rods are a semifinished product intended primarily for the
manufacture of wire. Wire is
intended primarily for cold forming, including coiling, stranding,
weaving, heading and machining
as covered under the latest revision of each of the following ASTM
specifications: A 313/A 313M, A
368, A 478, A 492, A 493, A 580/A 580M and A 581/A 581M.
In case of conflicting requirements, the individual material
specification and this general
requirement specification shall prevail in the order named.
General requirements for flat products other than wire are covered in
Specification A 480/A 480M.
General requirements for bar and billet products are covered in
Specification A 484/A 484M.
The values stated in inch-pound units or SI (metric) units are to be
regarded separately as
standard; within the text and tables, the SI units are shown in
brackets ([]). The values stated in
each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be
used independent of the
other. Combining values from the two systems may result in
nonconformance with the specification.
Unless the order specifies the applicable metric specification
designation, the material shall be
furnished in the inch-pound units.
