ASTM F1665-95

Standard Specification for Poly(Vinyl Chloride) (PVC)and Other Conforming Organic Polymer-Coated Steel Barbed Wire Used With Chain-Link Fence

SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers poly(vinyl chloride)-coated steel barbed wire consisting of two poly(vinyl chloride)-coated strands, with four-point barbs of zinc-coated steel or aluminum alloy wire. Poly(vinyl chloride) hereinafter will be designated PVC.  
1.2 Barbed wire strand wire, produced from three classes of wire coatings, is covered as follows:  
1.2.1 Class 1 , consisting of PVC coating extruded over zinc-coated or aluminum-coated or zinc-5% aluminum-mischmetal alloy-coated steel wire;  
1.2.2 Class 2a , consisting of PVC coating extruded and adhered to zinc-coated or aluminum-coated or zinc-5% aluminum-mischmetal alloy-coated steel wire; and  
1.2.3 Class 2b , consisting of PVC coating fused and adhered to zinc-coated or aluminum-coated or zinc-5% aluminum-mischmetal alloy-coated steel wire.  
1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
