ASTM A705/A705M-13 - 1.5.2013
 
1. Scope

1.1 This specification2 covers age-hardening stainless steel forgings for general use.

1.2 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.

1.3 Unless the order specifies an “M” designation, the material shall be furnished to inch-pound units.

Note 1Bar products are covered by Specification A564/A564M.
