This specification covers the chemical, mechanical, and metallurgical requirements for wrought cobalt-20chromium-15tungsten-10nickel alloy bars, rods, wires, sheets, and strips (except surgical fixation wires) for use in surgical implants. All alloys shall be furnished to the purchaser's specifications, in the annealed or cold-worked condition. Then, bars and wires shall be finished bright annealed, cold drawn, pickled, ground, or ground and polished, as specified by the purchaser. While, sheets shall be furnished bright annealed, pickled, cold-rolled, or polished, as specified by the purchaser. The alloys shall adhere to specified values of ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, and microcleanliness.
