ABSTRACT This specification covers nickel-chromium-iron-molybdenum-copper alloy rods (UNS N06007, N06975, N06985, N06030, and N08031), hot- or cold-finished, solution annealed, ground, or turned, for use in general corrosive service. Heat and product (check) analysis of the alloy shall conform to the chemical composition requirements prescribed for nickel, chromium, iron, molybdenum, copper, manganese, cobalt, carbon, tungsten, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur, columbium and tantalum, titanium, and nitrogen. The material shall conform to the specified straightness criteria and to the mechanical property requirements including tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation, as determined by tension test. SCOPE 1.1 This specification2 covers rod of Ni-Cr-Fe-Mo-Cu alloys (UNS N06007, N06975, N06985, N06030, N08031, and N08034)3 as shown in Tables 1-3, for use in general corrosive service. 1.2 The following products are covered under this specification: 1.2.1 Rods 5/16 in. to 3/4 in. (7.94 mm to 19.05 mm) excl in diameter, hot- or cold-finished, solution annealed and pickled or mechanically descaled. 1.2.2 Rods 3/4 in. to 31/2 in. (19.05 mm to 88.9 mm) incl in diameter, hot- or cold-finished, solution annealed, ground or turned. 1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard. 1.4 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
