ASTM B211 / B211M

This specification covers rolled or cold-finished bar, rod, and wire in alloys.Alloy and temper designations are in accordance with ANSI H35.1. A complete metric companion to Specification B 211 has been developed—B 211M; therefore, no metric equivalents are presented in this specification. 1.4 For acceptance criteria for inclusion of new aluminum and aluminum alloys in this specification,

Note D: Others includes listed elements for which no specific limit is shown as well as unlisted metallic elements. The producer may analyze samples for trace elements not specified in the specification. However, such analysis is not required and may not cover all metallic Others elements. Should any analysis by the producer or the purchaser establish that an Others element exceeds the limit of Each or that the aggregate of several Others elements exceeds the limit of Total, the material shall be considered non-conforming.
Note E: Other elements—Total shall be the sum of unspecified metallic elements 0.010 % or more each, rounded to the second decimal before determining the sum.
Note F: Vanadium 0.05 % max.
Note G: The aluminum content is the difference between 100.00 % and the sum of all other metallic elements and silicon present in amounts of 0.010 % or more each, rounded to the second decimal before determining the sum.
Note H: Vanadium 0.05–0.15 % zirconium 0.10–0.25 %. The total for other elements does not include vanadium and zirconium.
