Historical Standard: ASTM E1916-97(2004) Standard Guide for Identification and/or Segregation of Mixed Lots of Metals
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM E1916
1. Scope
1.1 This guide covers the identification or segregation, or both, of mixed metal lots under plant condition using trained plant personnel.
1.2 The identification is not intended to have the accuracy and reliability of procedures performed in a laboratory using laboratory equipment under optimum conditions, and performed by trained chemists or technicians. The identification is not intended to establish whether a given piece or lot of metal meets specifications.
1.3 Segregation of certain metal combinations is not always possible with procedures provided in this guide and can be subject to errors.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
