Historical Standard: ASTM A227/A227M-99(2005) Standard Specification for Steel Wire, Cold-Drawn for Mechanical Springs
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM A227 / A227M
1. Scope
1.1 This specification covers two classes of round cold-drawn steel spring wire having properties and quality for the manufacture of mechanical springs that are not subject to high stress or requiring high fatigue properties and wire forms.
1.2 The 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.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
