One ormore of the supplementary requirements may be specified inthe order.1.3 This specification does not cover

5、 cast-welding fittings orfittings machined from castings.1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, theSI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in eachsystem are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system mustbe

6、 used independently of the other. Combining values from thetwo systems may result in nonconformance with this specifi-cation. Unless the order specifies the applicable “M” specifi-cation designation (SI units), the material shall be furnished toinch-pound units.2. Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standa
