How You Will Benefit
This 2-day HANDS-ON class will provide you with a practical working knowledge of various ASTM corrosion tests. The test equipment used for this standard practice is actually present in the classroom, where you will learn how to operate the equipment and conduct the tests.
On-Site Training Available
ASTM can bring this course to your site for groups. On-site training courses can also be tailored to meet your specific needs. For more information, please contact sales here or call 1-877-909-ASTM.
Free ASTM Membership
Attend this course and receive a FREE 1-year membership in ASTM International and Committee G01 on Corrosion of Metals. (Applies to new members only and may not be used to renew existing memberships)
Attention: Professional Engineers
If your state has a continuing education requirement for license renewal, ASTM training courses and ASTM membership can help you meet that requirement.

About the Instructor
Raymund Singleton is president and owner of the Singleton Corp. of Cleveland, OH, which manufactures accelerated corrosion testing chambers and other environmental exposure equipment and systems. Also manufactured are "barrel type" metal finishing equipment and systems for electroplating, phosphating, black oxidizing, and metal cleaning.
Singleton holds U.S. patents for both corrosion testing and metal finishing apparatus. In addition to giving presentations on these topics to various trade groups, he has written articles on corrosion testing which have been published in Metal Finishing and Products Finishing.
He is a member of the National Association for Surface Finishing (NASF), the National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE International), the Society for Protective Coatings (SSPC) and of ASTM, where he is currently chairman of ASTM's Section on Cabinet Corrosion Tests. Singleton obtained his Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics from Baldwin-Wallace University.
About ASTM and Sponsoring Committee G01
ASTM is one of the world's largest voluntary standards development organizations. ASTM standards have grown to be among the world's most widely used and accepted documents. The 82-volume Annual Book of ASTM Standards (now available on CD ROM) contains over 12,000 standards written by 34,000 members on our 140 technical committees. These standards are widely used throughout the world as the basis of purchasing and other contracts, codes, laws and regulations.
ASTM Committee G01 on Corrosion of Metals developed the standards used in this course. For more information on Committee G01, contact Jen Rodgers or (610) 832-9694 or go to our G01 technical committee page.
