Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 6363-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 79, Light metals and their alloys, Subcommittee
SC 6, Wrought aluminium and aluminium alloys.
This second edition, together with ISO 6365-1:1988, cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 6363-1:1988),
which has been technically revised.
ISO 6363 consists of the following parts, under the general title Wrought aluminium and aluminium alloys —
Cold-drawn rods/bars, tubes and wires:
— Part 1: Technical conditions for inspection and delivery
— Part 2: Mechanical properties
— Part 3: Drawn round bars and wires — Tolerances on form and dimensions (symmetric plus and minus
tolerances on diameter)
— Part 4: Drawn rectangular bars and wires — Tolerances on form and dimensions
— Part 5: Drawn square and hexagonal bars and wires — Tolerances on form and dimensions

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
rod
bar
solid wrought product of uniform cross-section along its whole length, supplied in straight lengths
NOTE 1 A rod is normally less than 6 mm in diameter or of minor dimension.
NOTE 2 In North America, the minimum diameter or perpendicular distance between parallel faces of a rod is more
than 10 mm (0,375 in); below this limit the product is called “wire”.
NOTE 3 The cross-sections are in the shape of circles, squares, rectangles or regular hexagons. Products with a
square, rectangular or hexagonal cross-section may have corners rounded along their whole length.
NOTE 4 For rectangular bars, the thickness exceeds one tenth of the width. The term “rectangular bar” includes
“flattened circles” and “modified rectangles”, of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being
straight, of equal length and parallel.
3.2
tube
hollow wrought product of uniform cross-section with only one enclosed void along its whole length, and with
a uniform wall thickness, supplied in straight lengths or in coiled form, provided the inner and outer cross-
sections are concentric and have the same form and orientation
3.3
wire
wrought product of uniform cross-section along its whole length, supplied in coiled form
NOTE 1 In North America, the maximum diameter or perpendicular distance between parallel faces of a wire is less
than 10 mm (0,375 in). Above this limit, the product is called “rod” or “bar”.
NOTE 2 Cross-sections are in the shape of circles, ovals, squares, rectangles, equilateral triangles or regular polygons.
Products with square and regular polygons and products with a square, rectangular, triangular or polygonal cross-section
may have corners rounded along their whole length.
3.4
cold-drawn rod
bar
tube
hot-worked wrought product brought to final dimensions by cold working
3.5
seamless tubes
tube in which there is no split or deliberate longitudinal bonding of two or more edges by pressure, fusion or
mechanical interlocking
