1.1This specification2 covers age-hardening stainless steel forgings for general use.
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.
1.3Unless the order specifies an “M” designation, the material shall be furnished to inch-pound units.
Note 1–Bar products are covered by Specification A564/A564M.
