2、ion,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S.Department of Defense.1.Scope*1.1 This specification es
3、tablishes the requirements for free-cutting brass rod,bar,wire,and shapes of any specified crosssection produced from Copper Alloy UNS Nos.C36000 orC36010 suitable for high-speed screw machining applicationsand moderate thread rolling.1.2 UnitsValues stated in either SI units or inch-poundunits are
4、to be regarded separately as standard.The valuesstated in each system may not be exact equivalents;therefore,each system shall be used independently of the other.Combin-ing values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.1.2.1 Within the text,SI units are shown in bracket
5、s.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Doc
