(Specification)Standard Specification for Nickel-Copper Alloy (UNS N04400) Plate, Sheet, and Strip
Standard Specification for Nickel-Copper Alloy (UNS N04400) Plate, Sheet, and Strip
ABSTRACT
This specification covers rolled nickel-copper alloy (UNS N04400) plate, sheet, and strip. The matreial shall conform to the required chemical composition for nickel, copper, iron, manganese, carbon, silicon, and sulfur. The material shall conform to the required mechanical propeties such as tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, and Rockwell hardness. The material shall conform to the required grain size. Dimensions such as plate, sheet, and strip thickness, width, or diameter, length, straightness, edges, squareness, and flatness shall be determined.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification2 covers rolled nickel-copper alloy (UNS N04400)3 plate, sheet, and strip.
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
1.3 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 become familiar with all hazards including those identified in the appropriate Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for this product/material as provided by the manufacturer, to establish appropriate safety and health practices, and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
