This specification covers hot-rolled and cold-rolled drawing alloy steel sheets and strips for applications involving severe cold plastic deformation such as deep drawn or severely formed parts. Materials may be furnished in several conditions, heat treatments, surface finishes, and edges, as specified herein, in coils or cut lengths. Unless otherwise specified, specimens shall be heat treated by spheroidize annealing. Materials shall be tested and conform to specified values of chemical composition, metallurgical structure or microstructure, tensile strength, elongation, and Rockwell hardness. Unless otherwise specified, hot-rolled specimens shall be surface finished by descaling and oiling, and furnished with mill edge. While, cold-rolled specimens shall have a commercial dull matte surface finish and be oiled, and furnished with cut edge for sheets, and No. 3 edge for strips.

This abstract is a brief summary of the referenced standard. It is informational only and not an official part of the standard; the full text of the standard itself must be referred to for its use and application. ASTM does not give any warranty express or implied or make any representation that the contents of this abstract are accurate, complete or up to date.

1. Scope

1.1 This specification covers hot-rolled and cold-rolled drawing alloy-steel sheet and strip. Material of this quality is produced principally for applications involving severe cold plastic deformation such as deep drawn or severely formed parts. This steel is produced by a closely controlled steel-making practice designed to assure internal soundness, relative uniformity of chemical composition, and freedom from injurious imperfections.

1.2 The material covered by this specification may be furnished in several conditions, heat treatments, surface finishes, and edges, as specified herein, in coils or cut lengths.

2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
