ASTM B98/B98M-03

ASTM B98/B98M-03 - 10.4.2003

1. Scope

1.1 This specification establishes requirements for copper-silicon rod, bar, and shapes for UNS Alloys C65100, C65500, and C66100.

Note 1—Material for hot forging is covered by Specification B 124.

Note 2—For ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code applications, see Specification SB-98 in Section II of that code.

1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, SI units are shown in brackets. The values in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification.
