ASTM B 501 Document Information:
Title
Standard Specification for Silver-Coated, Copper-Clad Steel Wire for Electronic Application
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Sep 1, 2004
Scope:
This specification covers silver-coated, round, copper-clad steel wire
for electronic application.
Silver coatings in mass percentages of the total mass of the coated
wire are as follows: 1.25, 2.5,
4.0, 6.1, and 8.0.
Silver-coated wire having different minimum percentage of silver by
mass may be obtained by mutual
agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser. For information
purposes, the thickness of
coating in microinches provided by the mass percentages listed in 1.2
is shown in Table 1.
Four classes of copper-clad steel wire are covered as follows: Class
30HS nominal 30 % conductivity
hard-drawn, Class 30A nominal 30 % conductivity annealed, Class 40HS
nominal 40 % conductivity
hard-drawn, and Class 40A nominal 40 % conductivity annealed.
The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the
standard. The values given in
parentheses are for information only except for resistivity, where the
SI units are to be regarded
as the standard.
The following safety hazards caveat pertains to the test method
described in this specification.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use. (Caution -
Consideration should be given to toxicity and flammability when
selecting solvent cleaners.)
