Applicability and limitations

2003 edition covering round stainless steel spring wire; mass fraction wt%.; Table 1 Footnote B: Values without a listed range are upper limits; blanks are unspecified and shall not be filled as zero. Table 1 UNS S45500; Mechanical properties for categories such as A/B, or for cold-drawn and subsequently aged conditions, cannot be inferred from the composition table.. 2205 is not listed in this edition; do not add it based on similar grade designations.; Original texts of the 2018 and 2025 reaffirmations have not been verified.. Spring wire application does not automatically equal suitability for cold heading; Do not automatically add products to the supply offering.. Nb+Ta is a combined content of 0.10–0.50%, not to be split into two independent ranges.
