ASTM A622/A622M-97

Standard Specification for Drawing Steel (DS), Sheet and Strip, Carbon, Hot-Rolled (Withdrawn 2000)

SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers hot-rolled carbon steel sheet and strip of drawing quality, special killed, in coils or cut lengths. This material is intended for use in fabricating identified parts where particularly severe drawing or forming may be involved and surface appearance is usually not of primary importance.  
1.2 This specification is applicable for orders in either inch-pound units (as A 622) of SI units (as A 622M).
