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.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
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. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to
the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see
www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 79, Light metals and their alloys,
Subcommittee SC 6, Wrought aluminium and aluminium alloys.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 6363-1:2012), which has been technically
revised. The main changes are as follows:
— JIS H1305 has been added as an option for the chemical composition analysis method;
— errors have been corrected and expressions modified throughout.
A list of all parts in the ISO 6363 series can be found on the ISO website.
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
ISO and IEC maintain terminology databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:
— ISO Online browsing platform: available at https:// www .iso .org/ obp

3.1
rod/bar
solid wrought product of uniform cross-section along its whole length, supplied in straight lengths
Note 1 to entry: A rod is normally less than 6 mm in diameter or of minor dimension.
Note 2 to entry: 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 (3.3).
Note 3 to entry: 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 to entry: 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 to entry: 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”.

or polygonal cross-section may have corners rounded along their whole length.
3.4

one or more pieces taken from each product in the sample (3.7), for the purpose of producing test pieces
(3.9)

test piece
piece taken from each test specimen (3.8) and suitably prepared for the test (3.10)
3.10
test
operation to which the test piece (3.9) is subjected in order to measure or classify a property or

3.11
certificate of conformity
document by which the producer certifies that, according to inspections and results of representative
tests, the products for delivery conform to the relevant International Standards and with the additional
requirements in the order
3.12
test report
document by which the producer certifies that the products for delivery comply with the requirements
specified in the order
