ISO 16143-3:2005 PDF

Scope: This part of ISO 16143 specifies requirements for stainless steel wire for common use for which no product standard exists. It includes round, flat and shaped wire (such as square, hexagonal or rectangular wire), made of the most commonly used types of stainless steels for general corrosion resistance and high-temperature service. The wire may be supplied in coils or in straightened and cut lengths. NOTE Steel wire made of corrosion resistant stainless steel is manufactured from steels mentioned in ISO 16143-2, and steel wire intended for high-temperature purposes is manufactured from steels mentioned in ISO 4955. Excluded from this part of ISO 16143 are — wire for cold heading; — welding wire, and — any wire for which a specific product standard exists.
