ASTM A 1018/A 1018M Document Information:
Title
Standard Specification for Steel, Sheet and Strip, Heavy-Thickness Coils, Hot-Rolled, Carbon, Commercial, Drawing, Structural, High-Strength Low-Alloy, High-Strength Low-Alloy with Improved Formability, and Ultra-High Strength
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Jan 15, 2007
Scope:
This specification covers hot-rolled, heavy-thickness coils
beyond the size limits of Specification A 1011/A 1011M.
The product is available in six designations: Commercial Steel,
Drawing Steel, Structural Steel, High-Strength Low-Alloy Steel,
High-Strength Low-Alloy Steel with Improved Formability, and
Ultra-High Strength Steel.
This material is available only in coils described as
follows:
NOTE 1—The changes in width limits with the publication of A
635/A 635M – 06a result in a change in tensile testing direction
for material from 0.180 in. [4.5 mm] to 0.230 in. exclusive [6.0 mm
exclusive] over 48 in. [1200 mm] wide as that material is now
covered by Specification A 568/A 568M – 06a. The purchaser is
advised to discuss this change with the supplier.
Sheet and strip in coils of sizes noted in 1.3 are covered by
this specification only with the following provisions:
The material is to be fed directly from coils into a blanking
press, drawing or forming operation, tube mill, rolling mill, or
sheared or slit into blanks for subsequent drawing or forming.
The material is not to be converted into steel plates for
structural or pressure vessel use unless tested in complete
accordance with the appropriate sections of Specifications A 6/A 6M
(plates provided from coils) or A 20/A 20M (plates produced from
coils). Plate converted from coils is no longer governed by this
sheet steel specification and since this material is now a plate,
the requirements of the appropriate plate specification shall
apply, except in cases where there is a conflict between the
requirements of the plate specification and this specification. In
these cases, the more restrictive limits of either specification
shall apply.
The dimensional tolerances of Specification A 635/A 635M are
applicable to material produced to this specification.
Not all strength levels are available in all thicknesses. The
user should consult the producer for appropriate size
limitations.
The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units
[metric] are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text
the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each
system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be
used independently of the other.
*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this
standard.
