1 .Definitions
Bar—A solid wrought product that is long in relation to its cross section which is square or rectangular (excluding plate and flattened wire) with sharp or rounded corners or edges, or is a regular hexagon or octagon, that is typically supplied in straight lengths and in which at least one perpendicular distance between parallel faces is 1 0 mm or greater. In North America, below this limit the product is called “Wire”. In Europe, bar is supplied in straight lengths; if supplied in coiled form, the product is called “Wire.”
Fin Stock—Coiled sheet or foil suitable and intended for manufacture of fins for heat-exchanger applications.
Foil—Generally, a rolled product rectangular in cross section of thickness equal to or less than 0.20 mm (Formerly 0.1 5 mm, changed to 0.20 mm for international harmonization). There is an overlap in the thickness range 0.1 5-0.20 mm defined for foil and sheet. Foil products in this thickness range are supplied to foil product specifications.
Forging Stock—A solid product, typically ingot, rod, bar or profile, intended and suitable for forging. Forging stock is typically a cast product or an extruded product.
Pipe—Tube in standardized combinations of outside diameter and wall thickness. Pipe is commonly designated by “Nominal Diameter” and “ANSI Schedule Numbers.”
Plate—A rolled product that is rectangular in cross section and with thickness not less than 6.3 mm and with sheared or sawed edges. (Note: In some international specifications plate products are defined as having a thickness not less than 6.0 mm).
Tread Plate—Plate (or sheet) upon which a pattern has been impressed on one side, by rolling using a specially prepared roll with an appropriate pattern, to provide improved traction.
Profile—A wrought product that is long in relation to its cross-sectional dimensions which is of a form other than that of sheet, plate, rod, bar, tube, wire or foil. For profiles sometimes the term “Shape” or “Section” is used, however the term “Shape” is no longer recommended.
Structural Profile—A profile, rolled or extruded, commonly used for for structural purposes such as angles, channels, H-beams, I-beams, tees, and zees.
Rod—A solid wrought product of circular cross section that is long in relation to its diameter, typically supplied in straight lengths. In North America, the minimum diameter of a rodi 0 mm; below this limit, the product is called “Wire” In Europe, rod is supplied in straight lengths and is often called “Round Bar”; if supplied in coiled form, the product is called “Wire.ANSI H35.2(M) pdf download.
