3、ent of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers the general requirements forsteel sheet in coils and cut lengths. It applies to the followingspecifications that describe carbon steel, structural steel, andhigh-strength, low-alloy steel (HSLA) furnished as hot-rolledsheet and cold-rolled sheet:

4、 Specifications A 414/A 414M,A 424, A 606, A 659/A 659M, A 794, A 1008/A 1008M,A 1011/A 1011M, and A 1039/A 1039M.1.2 This specification is not applicable to hot-rolled heavy-thickness carbon sheet coils (Specification A 635/A 635M).1.3 In case of any conflict in requirements, the requirementsof the

5、 individual material specification shall prevail over thoseof this general specification.1.4 For the purposes of determining conformance with thisand the appropriate product specification referenced in 1.1,values shall be rounded to the nearest unit in the right handplace of figures used in expressi

6、ng the limiting values inaccordance with the rounding method of Practice E29.1.5 AnnexA1 lists permissible variations in dimensions andmass (see Note 1) in SI metric units. The values listed are notexact conversions of the values listed in the inch-pound tables,but instead are rounded or rationalize

7、d values. Conformance toAnnex A1 is mandatory when the “M” specification is used.NOTE 1The term weight is used when inch-pound units are thestandard. However, under SI the preferred term is mass.1.6 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Th

8、e values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.7 This specification and the applicable material specifica-tions are expressed in both inc

9、h-pound units and SI units.However, unless the order specifies the applicable “M” speci-fication designation (SI units), the material shall be furnishedto inch-pound units.2.

Historic limitations of a product based upondimensions (thickness, width, and length) do not take intoaccount current production and processin

36、g capabilities. Toqualify any product for a particular product specificationrequires all appropriate and necessary tests be performed andthat the results meet the limits prescribed in that productspecification. If the necessary tests required by a productspecification cannot be conducted, the produc

37、t cannot bequalified to that specification. This general requirements speci-fication contains permitted variations for the commonly avail-able sizes. Permitted variations for other sizes are subject toagreement between the customer and the manufacturer orprocessor, whichever is applicable.3.1.7 rete

If only one organization controls or is responsible

43、for (orboth) the hot rolling and processing operations, that organiza-tion is termed the manufacturer. If more than one organizationcontrols or is responsible for (or both) hot rolling and process-ing operations, the organization that controls and is responsiblefor the hot rolling is termed the hot

Likewise, one organization may be the manufacturerof the hot roll coil and another the manufacturer of the cold rollcoil. In such case, the orga
