Scope

1.1 This specification covers rod of Ni-Cr-Fe-Mo-Cu alloys (UNS N06007, N06975, N06985, N06030, and N08031)* as shown in Tables 1-2, for use in general corrosive service.

1.2 The following products are covered under this specification:

1.2.1 Rods 5/16 to ¾ in. (7.94 to 19.05 mm) excl in diameter, hot- or cold-finished, solution annealed and pickled or mechanically descaled.

1.2.2 Rods ¾ to 3½ in. (19.05 to 88.9 mm) incl in diameter, hot- or cold-finished, solution annealed, ground or turned.

1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.

1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to become familiar with all hazards including those identified in the appropriate Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for this product/material as provided by the manufacturer, to establish appropriate safety and health practices, and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
