tailieunhanh - Standard Specification for Free-Machining Stainless Steel Wire and Wire Rods

This specification covers cold-finished wire and hotfinished wire rods in coils. Wire rods are a semi-finished product primarily for the manufacture of wire. Wire includes rounds, squares, hexagons, and special shapes in the more commonly used types of stainless free-machining steels designed especially for optimum machinability and for general corrosion and high-temperature service. | Designation A581 A581M 95b Reapproved 2014 Standard Specification for Free-Machining Stainless Steel Wire and Wire Rods1 This standard is issued under the fixed designation A581 A581M the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of original adoption or in the case of revision the year of last revision.
