The following bibliographic material is provided to assist you with your purchasing decision:


This specification covers nickel (UNS N02200), low carbon nickel (UNS N02201), and solution strengthened nickel (UNS N02211) in the form of hot-worked, cold-worked, or annealed rods and bars of round, square, hexagonal, or rectangular solid section. The material shall conform to the chemical composition limits specified for nickel, copper, iron, manganese, carbon, silicon, and sulfur. Mechanical requirements including tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation are given for specific conditions and diameter or distance between parallel surfaces. Chemical analysis, tension test, and hardness test shall be performed.

ORDER

Scope

1.1 This specification2 covers nickel (UNS N02200),3 low carbon nickel (UNS N02201),3 and solution strengthened nickel (UNS N02211) in the form of hot-worked and cold-worked rod and bar in the conditions shown in Table 1.

(A) See 12.2.
(B) Not applicable to diameters or cross sections under 3/32 in. (2.4 mm).
(C) For hot-worked flats 5/16 in. (7.9 mm) and under in thickness the elongation shall be 25 %, min.
(D) Hardness B45 to B80, or equivalent.
(E) Hardness B45 to B70 or equivalent.
(F) Forging quality is furnished to chemical requirements and surface inspection only. No tensile properties are required.

1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.

1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to become familiar with all hazards including those identified in the appropriate Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for this product/material as provided by the manufacturer, to establish appropriate safety and health practices, and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
