Description / Abstract:
This practice describes the sampling of copper (except
electrolytic cathode) and copper alloys in either cast or wrought
form for the determination of composition.
Cast products may be in the form of cake, billet, wire bar,
ingot, ingot bar, or casting.
Wrought products may be in the form of flat, pipe, tube, rod,
bar, shape, or forging.
This practice is not intended to supersede or replace existing
specification requirements for the sampling of a particular
material.
The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the
standard. The values in parentheses are given for information
only.
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 establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use. A specific precautionary statement
appears in Appendix X4.
