1.1.1This product is suitable for applications requiring extensive machining before such cold-forming operations as swaging, flaring, severe knurling, or thread rolling.
1.1.2Typically, product made to this specification is furnished as straight lengths. Sizes 1/2in. [12 mm] and under may be furnished as wire in coils or on reels when requested.
1.2The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.
