ASTM B574 Specification

Scope

This specification2 covers rod of low-carbon nickelchromium-molybdenum alloys (UNS N10276, N06022, N06035, N06455, N06058, and N06059)*, low-carbon nickelmolybdenum-chromium-tantalum (UNS N06210), low-carbon nickel-chromium-molybdenum-copper alloy (UNS N06200), and low-carbon nickel-chromium-molybdenum-tungsten (UNS N06686) 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), exclusive, 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), inclusive, in diameter, hot or cold finished, solution annealed, ground or turned. Rods 1⁄4 to 3 1⁄2 in. (6.35 to 88.9 mm), inclusive, in diameter, solution annealed, cold finished, as cold finished, ground or turned (N06059 and N06686 only, see Table 2 and Table 3).
