ASTM A963/A963M-97

Standard Specification for Deep Drawing Steel (DDS), Sheet, Carbon, Cold-Rolled (Withdrawn 2000)

SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers cold-rolled carbon deep drawing steel (DDS) sheet, in coils and cut lengths. This material is intended for fabricating identified parts where very severe drawing or forming in excess of the abilities of materials covered by Specification A 620/A 620M may be involved. Some aging may occur with this product.
1.2 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI (metric) units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other.
