7、 States should change to the metric system through a coordinated national program.This action along with subsequent increased metric activity in in-dustry resulted in a number of requests from producers and users that the B32 Committee develop preferred series of metric sizes for the various forms o
8、f wrought mill metal products.On January 17,1977 Subcommittees 1 and 2 were formed to establish preferred metric sizes of solid flat and round metal products respectively.Subsequently Subcommittee 2 had its scope enlarged to include solid square and hexagon products.Subcommittee 4 was formed on Octo
9、ber 24,1973 to consider tubular products.Pipe products were excluded as they are under the jurisdiction of ANSI B36 Committee.These Committees are composed of representatives of the major metal trade associations and user groups.After several meetings,consensus agreement was reached by Subcommittee
10、4 on the preferred metric sizes for tubular metal products.Several considerations guided the Subcommittee:IS0 preferred number sizes,sizes actually used in metric countries,and the need for rounded metric equivalents of high activity inch sizes.The Subcommittee agreed to provide two sequentially num
11、bered companion standards,one specify-ing metric sizes designated ANSI B32.5 and one specifying metric equivalents of inch sizes designated ANSI B32.6.The proposals received Standards Committee B32 approval on March 30,1977 and was approved as an American National Standard on September 7,1977.iii Co
