1、Designation: B550/B550M 07 (Reapproved 2012)Standard Specification forZirconium and Zirconium Alloy Bar and Wire1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B550/B550M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the ye

2、ar of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification2covers three grades of zirconium andzirconium alloy bar and wire.1.2 Unless a single unit is

3、used, for example corrosion massgain in mg/dm2, the values stated in either inch-pound or SIunits are to be regarded separately as standard. The valuesstated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore eachsystem must be used independently of the other. SI valuescannot be mixed with inch-pou

4、nd values.1.3 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to thetest methods portions of this specification. This standard doesnot purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any,associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of thisstandard to establish appropriate safety
