Pref

16、orming Strand7.1 Preformed strand shall be supplied when so specified bythe 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.

17、8.1 The approximate weight per unit length of strand andthe minimum breaking 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 testin

18、g machine, bybreaking within the jaws, or within 1 in. 25.4 mm of the jaws,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 in accordance with 9.2, s

19、hall be not less than 5 %for the high-strength and for the516-in. 7.94-mm, three-wireutilities grades, and 4 % for the extra-highstrength and for the38-in. 9.52-mm, seven-wire utilities grades.9.2 The elongation shall be measured as the percentageincrease in separation between the jaws of the testin

20、g machinefrom the position after application of the initial load, to theposition at initial failure in the test specimen. The separation ofthe jaws of the testing machine shall be approximately 2 ft0.61 m when under an initial load equal to 10 % of therequired minimum breaking strength of the strand

21、. 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 wires of the completed strand shall notfracture when wrapped at a rate not exceeding 15 turns perminute in a close helix of at least t

22、wo turns around a cylindricalmandrel equal to three times the nominal diameter of the wireunder test.11. Weight of Coating11.1 The weight of Zn-5 Al-MM alloy coating shall not beless than that specified in Table 2.11.2 Weight of Coating TestThe Zn-5 Al-MM alloy coat-ing shall be tested for weight by

23、 a stripping test in accordancewith Test Method A 90/A 90M.12. Adherence of Coating12.1 The Zn-5Al-MM alloy coating shall adhere to the wirewithout delaminating and without being removable by rubbingwith the bare fingers after the individual wires have beenwrapped at a rate not exceeding 15 turns pe

24、r minute, in a closehelix of at least two turns around a cylindrical mandrel equal tothree times the nominal diameter of the wire under test.Loosening or detachment during the adhesion tests of superfi-cial, small particles of Zn-5 Al-MM alloy formed by mechani-cal polishing of the surface of Zn-5 A

25、l-MM alloy-coated wireshall 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 made prior to the start ofcold drawing of the wire are permitted; h

26、owever, 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 Size14.1 The diameter of the Zn-5 Al-MM alloy-coated wireforming the stra

27、nd shall conform to the nominal diametershown in Table 2 within a tolerance of 60.004 in. 0.102 mmfor wire sizes 0.104 in. 2.642 mm and 0.120 in. 3.048 mmand 60.005 in. 0.127 mm for wire sizes 0.145 in. 3.683 mmand 0.165 in. 4.191 mm.15. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance15.1 The Zn-5Al-MM alloy-co

28、ated wire shall be uniform indiameter and shall be free from splints, scales, inequalities,flaws, and other imperfections not consistent with good com-mercial practice. The coating shall be continuous and reason-ably uniform.TABLE 1 Physical Properties of Zn-5 Al-MM Alloy-Coated Steel Overhead Groun

33、alwires 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 occurre

34、d 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 the p

35、urchaser. However, if the producermakes this election, the purchaser shall still reserve the right totest wires from the completed strand for compliance.17. Inspection17.1 The manufacturer shall afford the inspector represent-ing the purchaser all reasonable facilities to satisfy him that themateria

36、l is being furnished in accordance with this specifica-tion. All tests and inspection shall be made on the finishedstrand at the place of manufacture prior to shipment and shallbe so conducted as not to interfere unnecessarily with theoperation of the works.18. Rejection18.1 In case there is a reaso

37、nable doubt in the first trial as tothe failure of the wire or strand to meet any requirement of thisspecification, two additional tests shall be made on samples ofwire or strand from the same coil or reel, and if failure occursin either of these tests, the strand shall be rejected.19.
