Short description
1.1 This specification 2 covers the requirements for copper sheet, strip, plate, and rolled bar produced from the following coppers. Copper UNS No.A Previous Designation Type of Copper C10100 OFE Oxygen-free electronic C10200 OF Oxygen-free without residual deoxidants C10300 OFXLP Oxygen-free extra low phosphorus C10400, C10500, C10700 OFS Oxygen-free, silver bearing C10800 OFLP Oxygen-free low phosphorus C10910 ... Low oxygen C11000B ETP, TPB Electrolytic tough pitch,B Tough pitchB C11300, C11400, C11600 STP Silver bearing tough pitch C12000 DLP Phosphorized, low residual phos- phorus C12200 DHP Phosphorized, high residual phos- phorus C12300 DHPS Phosphorized, silver bearing C14200 DPA Phosphorus deoxidized, arsenical C14420 ... Tin bearing tellurium copper C14530 ... Tin tellurium bearing copper Note 1: Each of the coppers listed has unique properties that can make it suitable for specific applications. The purchaser should consult with the supplier to determine which copper would be best suited for the intended application. Note 2: This specification is not intended to establish requirements for material rolled to ounce-weight thicknesses. Such material is defined in Specification B370 . Flat copper products with finished (rolled or drawn) edges (flat wire and strip) are defined in Specification B272 . 1.1.1 When a specific copper is not identified in the contract or purchase order, the supplier may furnish product from any of the listed coppers. 1.2 Units- The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, SI units are shown in brackets. 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 The following safety hazard caveat pertains only to the test method(s) described in this specification. 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. 1.4 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.
