Ordering Information4.1 Orders for strand purchased under this specificationshall include the following information:4.1.1 Quantity of each size,4.1.2 Size and grade of strand (Table 1), and4.1.3 Class of zinc coating (Section 11 and

6、 Table 2).4.1.4 ASTM designation and year of issue.5. Materials and Manufacture5.1 The base metal shall be steel produced by any commer-cially accepted steel making process and shall be of suchquality and purity that when drawn to the size of wire specifiedand coated with zinc, the finished strand w

Stranding6.1 The strand shall have a left lay with a uniform pitch ofnot more than 16 times the nominal diameter of the

8、 strand. Aleft lay is defined as a counter-clockwise twist away from theobserver. Stranding shall be sufficiently close to ensure nosignificant reduction in diameter when stressed to 10 % of theminimum breaking strength.7. Preforming Strand7.1 Preformed strand shall be supplied when so specified byt

9、he purchaser. Strand is preformed when the component wiresare set to the helical form which they assume in the product byany means of process other than by merely laying them aboutthe strand core.8. Breaking Strength and Weight8.1 The approximate weight per unit length of strand andthe minimum break

10、ing strength of the finished strand shall beas specified in Table 1.8.2 A test in which the breaking strength is below theminimum specified and which may have been caused by theslipping of the specimen in the jaws of the testing machine, bybreaking within the jaws or within 1 in. 25.4 mm of the jaws

11、,or by the improper socketing of a specimen shall be disre-garded and another sample from the same coil or reel shall betested.9. Elongation9.1 The elongation of the strand in 24 in. 610 mm,determined as specified in 9.2, shall be not less than 5 % for thehigh-strength and for the516-in. 7.94-mm, 3-

The elon-gation values shall be recorded only for specimens that breakover 1 in. 25.4 mm from jaws of the testing machine.10. Ductility of Steel10.1 The individual wire

16、s of the completed strand shall notfracture when wrapped at a rate not exceeding 15 turns perminute in a close helix of at least two turns around a cylindricalmandrel equal to three times the nominal diameter of the wireunder test.11. Weight of Coating11.1 The weight of zinc coating shall not be les

Adherence of Coating12.1 The zinc coating shall adhere to the wire withoutdelaminating and without being removable by rubbing with th

18、ebare fingers after the individual wires have been wrapped at arate not exceeding 15 turns per minute, in a close helix of atleast two turns around a cylindrical mandrel equal to threetimes the nominal diameter of the wire under test. Loosening ordetachment during the adhesion tests of superficial,

19、smallparticles of zinc formed by mechanical polishing of the surfaceof zinc-coated wire shall not be considered cause for rejection.13. Joints and Splices13.1 There shall be no joints of any kind made in thefinished wire entering into the construction of the strand.13.2 Electric-welded butt joints m

20、ade prior to the start ofcold drawing of the wire are permitted; however, no electric-welded butt joints of the wire shall be made during the colddrawing application.13.3 There shall be no strand joints or strand splices in anylength of the completed strand.14. Permissible Variations in Wire Size14.

21、1 The diameter of the zinc-coated wire forming thestrand shall conform to the nominal diameter shown in Table 1within a tolerance of 60.004 in. 0.102 mm for Wire Sizes0.104 in. 2.642 mm and 0.120 in. 3.048 mm and 60.005 in.0.127 mm for Wire Sizes 0.145 in. 3.683 mm and 0.165 in.4.191 mm.15. Workmans

22、hip, Finish, and Appearance15.1 The zinc-coated wire shall be uniform in diameter andshall be free from splints, scales, inequalities, flaws, and otherimperfections not consistent with good commercial practice.The coating shall be continuous and reasonably uniform.16. Sampling16.1 The number of samp

23、les to be taken shall be determinedby lot size as follows:Lot Size Number of Samples1 to 3 reels 1 from each reel4 to 30 reels 3 min31 reels or greater 4 min16.2 Each sample taken shall be subjected to all testsprescribed in Sections 6, 8, and 9.16.3 In addition to the strand testing in 16.2 the ind

24、ividualwires from the strand samples shall be tested for compliancewith Sections 10, 11, 12, and 14. Select all three wires inthree-wire strand, and four of the wires in seven-wire strand.Individual wire samples selected for compliance to Section 14shall be discarded if any distortion of the wire oc

25、curred duringthe stranding operation.16.4 Instead of testing the wires from the completed strandin accordance with 16.3, the producer may elect to establishcompliance with Sections 10, 11, 12, and 14 of this specifica-tion by tests made on the wires prior to stranding, unlessotherwise stipulated by

26、the purchaser. However, if the producermakes this election, the purchaser shall still reserve the right totest wires from the completed strand for compliance.TABLE 1 Physical Properties of Zinc-Coated Steel Overhead Ground Wire StrandNominal Diameterof Strand,in. mmNumber ofWires inStrandNominal Dia

29、smooth and devoid of irregularities. If thetolerances shown above are rigidly applied to such irregularities that are inherent to the product, unjustified rejections of wire that would actually be satisfactory for usecould occur. Therefore, it is intended that these tolerances be used in gaging the
