27、 may be made during the final drawing or inthe finished wire by electric-butt welding, cold-pressure weld-ing, or electric-butt, cold-upset welding, subject to the follow-ing limitations.12.2.1 For wire sizes from 0.0100 to 0.0555 in. 0.225 to1.25 mm in diameter not more than three such joints shall

28、 bepresent in any coil, reel, or spool of the specified nominal mass.12.2.2 For wire sizes greater than 0.0500 in. 1.25 mmdiameter, not more than 10 % of the coils, reels, or spools shallcontain such joints, and no such joint shall be closer than 50 ft15 m to another joint or to either end of the wi

29、re. Not morethan two such joints shall be present in any coil, reel or spoolof the specified nominal mass.13. Sampling13.1 SamplingFor each use of a coil of redraw rod, fourtest specimens shall be obtained from the resulting drawn wireand tested to determine compliance with sections 6-9, and 11.14.

30、Test Methods14.1 DiameterDimensional measurements shall be madewith equipment capable of measuring to a graduation of 0.0001in. or 0.001 mm. Take two measurements at one location, thesecond rotated 90 from the first. Average the two measure-ments to obtain the specimen diameter.14.2 FinishMake a vis

31、ual surface finish inspection withthe unaided eye (corrective lenses excepted). The surface finishshall be free of surface marks. Should any specimen be foundunacceptable, the lot shall be considered to not meet surfacefinish requirements.14.3 Tensile strength and elongationThese may be deter-mined

32、simultaneously. Obtain the tensile strength, in accor-dance with Test Methods B557, by dividing the maximum loadresisted by the tensile specimen by the original cross-sectionalarea of the specimen, with the tensile stress to be expressed inksi MPa. Elongation is the percent increase in length of the

33、tensile test specimen as measured between gage marks origi-nally spaced 10 in. 250 mm apart on the specimen. Elonga-tion measurements are not required for wires 0.0500 in.1.25 mm in diameter. Should any part of the fracture takeplace outside the elongation gage lines, or if examination of thetensile

34、 specimen indicates a flaw, the values obtained may notbe representative and a test on another section of the specimenmay be run.14.4 Heat ResistanceCut wire samples from a continuoussection of drawn wire, and then heat treat test samples in auniformly heated oven or furnace at 536 6 9F (280 6 5C)fo

35、r one hour, remove and air cool, and then measure the tensilestrength at room temperature as in Section 14.3.14.5 Determine the electrical resistivity in accordance withTest Method B193.14.6 Test ResultsAll measured values shall meet or ex-ceed the minimum sample requirements.14.7 Wrap test (Brittle

36、ness)Specimens from any produc-tion unit may be tested, with the frequency of sampling andtesting to be agreed upon by the manufacturer and thepurchaser. Slowly wrap the test specimen in an open helixaround a wire or mandrel of its own diameter. Take care not tostretch the specimen during the wrappi

37、ng operation. Thespacing of consecutive turns shall be approximately equal tothe diameter of the wire. Use helical turns for the test.15. Conformance Criteria15.1 The test results of each specimen shall meet theminimum individual test requirements in Sections 6-9, 11,unless otherwise specified.15.2

38、If one or more of the test samples fail any test, thenon-conforming production unit will be rejected. Additionaltests shall be required as follows:15.2.1 One additional test specimen shall be obtained fromeach production unit on either side of the non-conformingproduction unit. Tests shall be run on

39、 the additional units.15.2.2 If all of the additional individual specimen results arein conformance, the lot shall be considered in conformance.15.2.3 If one or more of the additional tested specimens failany test, the lot shall be considered not in conformance andrejected.15.2.4 In the event a lot

40、is rejected in accordance with15.2.3, production units making up that lot may be individuallytested. Acceptance of individual production units from arejected lot shall be dependent on the individual specimen testresults meeting the minimum property requirements of Sec-tions 6-9, and 11.16. Inspectio

41、n16.1 Unless otherwise specified in the purchase contract, themanufacturer shall be responsible for the performance of allinspection and testing requirements specified.16.2 All tests and inspections shall be made at the place ofmanufacture unless otherwise agreed upon by the manufacturerand the purc

42、haser.16.3 The manufacturer shall afford the purchaser reasonableaccess to the manufacturers facilities consistent with thepurchasers need to ensure compliance with this specification.16.4 Unless otherwise agreed upon by the manufacturer andthe purchaser, conformance of the wire to the requirementss

43、pecified in Sections 6-9, and 11, shall be determined bysampling in accordance with Sections 14, 15, and 16 of each lotof wire presented for acceptance.17. Packaging and Package Marking17.1 Package sizes and types shall be as agreed upon by themanufacturer and the purchaser at the time of placing th

44、eindividual orders.17.2 Unless otherwise specified, each coil, reel, or spoolshall contain one continuous length of wire.17.3 The wire shall be protected against damage in ordinaryhandling and shipping.17.4 Each coil, reel, spool, or other package shall bear a tagshowing the manufacturers name or tr

45、ademark; the productidentification as Aluminum-Zirconium heat resistant wire; thesize, length, and net mass of the material. Additional informa-tion shall be as agreed upon by the manufacturer and thepurchaser at the time of placing the individual orders.B941 10318. Keywords18.1 aluminum electrical

46、conductor; aluminum heat-resistant wire; aluminum wire; aluminum-zirconium wire;electrical conductor; heat-resistant wire; wireEXPLANATORY NOTESNOTE 1Alot should comprise material taken from a product regularlymeeting the requirements of this specification. Inspection of lots of lessthan 5000 lb 250

47、0 kg of wire cannot be justified economically. For smalllots of less than 5000 lb 2500 kg the purchaser may agree to themanufacturers regular inspection of the product as a whole as evidence ofacceptability of such small lots.NOTE 2Evidence of statistical control must be demonstrated. To dothis, con

48、trol charts, as described in Part 3 of ASTMSTP 15DA3may beused, or process capability indices, Cpk, as described in ASTM B830.NOTE 3The speed of testing can affect the results of the tensilestrength and elongation test. In order to ensure uniformity in the testmethod and valid applicability of the t

49、est results to the conformancecriteria, it is recommended that the rate of separation of the heads of thetensile test machine not exceed 0.5 in. for each inch or 0.5 mm for eachmillimeter of length between grips per minute.NOTE 4Resistivity units are based on the International AnnealedCopper Standard (IACS) adopted by IEC in 1913, which is l/58 V.mm2/mat 20C (68F) for 100 % conductivity. The value of 0.017241 V.mm2/mat 20C (68F) is the international equivalent of volume resistivity ofannealed copper equal to 100 % conduct
