Short description
1.1 This specification establishes the requirements for seamless round and rectangular including square copper alloy tube in straight lengths. Ten alloys are specified having the following nominal compositions: Copper Nominal Composition, % Alloy UNS No. 2 Copper Zinc Lead Tin C22000 90.0 10.0 ... ... C23000 85.0 15.0 ... ... C26000 70.0 30.0 ... ... C27000 65.0 35.0 ... ... C27200 63.0 37.0 ... ... C27400 62.5 37.5 ... ... C28000 60.0 40.0 ... ... C33000 66.0 33.5 0.5 ... C33200 66.0 32.4 1.6 ... C37000 60.0 39.0 1.0 ... C44300 71.5 27.5 ... 1.00 1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system are not necessarily exact equivalents; therefore, to ensure conformance with the standard, each system shall be used independently of the other, and values from the two systems shall not be combined. 1.3 Warning- Mercury has been designated by many regulatory agencies as a hazardous substance that can cause serious medical issues. Mercury, or its vapor, has been demonstrated to be hazardous to health and corrosive to materials. Caution should be taken when handling mercury and mercury containing products. See the applicable product Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for additional information. Users should be aware that selling mercury and/or mercury containing products into your state or country may be prohibited by law. (See Section 10 .) 2 1.4 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 establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
