ASTM A331-95(2000)

Withdrawn Rationale:

This specification covers cold-finished alloy steel bars of grades and cross sections regarded as generally suitable for heat treatment, for machining into components, or for use in the "as-finished" condition in constructional applications, or for other similar purposes.

Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee A01 on Steel, Stainless Steel, and Related Alloys, this specification was withdrawn in March 2004.

1.1 This specification covers cold-finished alloy steel bars of grades and cross sections regarded as generally suitable for heat treatment, for machining into components, or for use in the "as-finished" condition in constructional applications, or for other similar purposes. Grades of steel are identified by grade numbers or by chemical composition (see Specifications A304 or A322, or Practice A400).

1.2 Some end uses may require material superior to standard requirements, involving one or more of the available designations shown in the supplementary requirements. These shall apply only when specified individually by the purchaser in the order.
