ASTM A659/A659M-97(2001)
Historical Standard: ASTM A659/A659M-97(2001) Standard Specification for Commercial Steel (CS), Sheet and Strip, Carbon (0.16 Maximum to 0.25 Maximum Percent), Hot-Rolled
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM A659 / A659M
1. Scope
1.1 This specification covers hot-rolled commercial steel (CS) sheet and strip, in coils and cut lengths, in which the maximum of the specified carbon range is over 0.15 and not over 0.25% and the maximum of the specified manganese range is not over 0.90%. This material is ordered to chemical composition.
1.2 This specification is not applicable to the steels covered by Specification A 635/A 635M.
1.3 The values stated in either acceptable SI (metric) units or in other units shall be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other, without combining values in any way.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
