ASTM F2063-05 - 1.11.2005
 
1. Scope

1.1 This specification covers the chemical, physical, mechanical, and metallurgical requirements for wrought nickel-titanium bar, flat rolled products, and tubing containing nominally 54.5 % to 57.0 % nickel and used for the manufacture of medical devices and surgical implants.

1.2 Requirements are for mill product, measuring 6 to 130 mm (0.24 to 5.12 in.) diameter or thickness, in its annealed condition.

1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in inch-pound units are for information only.
