This specification covers the requirements for wrought low-carbon iron having a carbon content of 0.015 % or less with the remainder of the analysis being substantially iron.
Two alloy types are covered: Type 1 is a lowphosphorous grade and Type 2 contains a phosphorous addition to improve machinability.
This specification also covers alloys supplied by a producer or converter in the form and condition suitable for fabrication into parts which will be subsequently heat treated to create the desired magnetic characteristics. It covers alloys supplied in the form of forging billets, hot-rolled products, and cold-finished bar, wire, and strip.
This specification does not cover iron powders capable of being processed into magnetic components.
This specification does not cover flat-rolled, low-carbon electrical steels.
The values stated in customary (cgs-emu and inchpound) units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units which are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
