Title
Standard Specification for Stainless Steel Wire

ASTM International

Publication Date:
Mar 1, 2006

Scope:

This specification covers stainless steel wire, except the free-machining types. It includes round, square, octagon, hexagon, and shape wire in coils only for the more commonly used types of stainless steels for general corrosion resistance and high-temperature service. For bars in straightened and cut lengths, see Specifications A 276 or A 479/A 479M.

NOTE 1—For free-machining stainless wire, designed especially for optimum machinability, see Specification A 581/A 581M.

Unless the order specifies the applicable “M” specification designation, the material shall be furnished to the inchpound units.

The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. 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.

*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this standard.
