ASTM B335 Specification

Scope

This specification2 covers rod of nickel-molybdenum alloys (UNS N10001, N10665, N10675, N10629, and N10624)* as shown in Table 1, for use in general corrosive service. The following products are covered under this specification: Rods 5⁄16 to 3⁄4 in. (7.94 to 19.05 mm) excl in diameter, hot or cold finished, solution annealed and pickled or mechanically descaled. Rods 3⁄4 to 31⁄2 in. (19.05 to 88.9 mm) incl in diameter, hot or cold finished, solution annealed, ground or turned. The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard.
