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 16120-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 17, Steel, Subcommittee SC 17, Steel wire rod
and wire products.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 16120-1:2001), which has been technically
revised.
ISO 16120 consists of the following parts, under the general title Non-alloy steel wire rod for conversion to
wire:

whole. Statistical evaluation of performances applicable to all coils may be agreed between the purchaser and
the manufacturer at the time of ordering.
7.2 Quality system
If agreed between the supplier and purchaser at the time of enquiry and order, the wire rod supplied shall be
produced under a mutually acceptable quality system.
7.3 Method of delivery
Wire rod shall be delivered by heat or part of a heat. Unless otherwise specified, the number of heats per
delivery should be minimized as far as possible.
7.4 Delivery condition
Wire rod shall be supplied in the as-rolled state, in coils of one continuous length with non-aligned turns, but
capable of being unwound in a regular manner during subsequent processing.
The coils shall be cut back at both ends to provide a product of uniform shape and properties.

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 3.
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.
International Standard ISO 16120-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 17, Steel, Subcommittee
SC 17, Steel wire rod and wire products.
This first edition of ISO 16120-1, together with parts 2, 3 and 4 cancels and replaces ISO 8457-2:1989 which
has been technically revised and augmented.
ISO 16120 consists of the following parts, under the general title Non-alloy steel wire rods for conversion to
wire:
- Part 1: General requirements
- Part 2: Specific requirements for general purpose wire rod
- Part 3 Specific requirements for rimmed and rimmed substitute low carbon steel wire rod
- Part 4 Specific requirements for wire rod for special applications
Annexes “A” and “D” form a normative part of this part of ISO 16120. Annexes “B” and “C” are illustrative only

whole. Statistical evaluation of performances applicable to all coils may be agreed between the purchaser and
the manufacturer at the time of ordering.
7.2 Quality system
If agreed between supplier and purchaser at the time of enquiry and order, the wire rod supplied shall be
produced under a mutually acceptable quality system.
7.3 Method of delivery
The products shall be delivered by heat or part of a heat. Unless otherwise specified the number of heats per
delivery should be minimized as far as possible.
7.4 Delivery condition
Wire rod shall be supplied in the as-rolled state, in coils of one continuous length with non-aligned turns, but
capable of being unwound in a regular manner during subsequent processing.
The coils shall be cut back at both ends to provide a product of uniform shape and properties.
