5、g,Philadelphia,PA May 1992 Foreword Committee A-5 on Metallic-Coated Iron and Steel Products I was organized in 1907,to investigate the corrosion of iron and steel.In 1908,the Committee sponsored its first atmospheric exposure of metallic-coated wires to evaluate their corrosion resistance.Since thi
6、s date,there have been a considerable number of test programs involving wire,sheet,and hardware.Of particular interest is the program initiated in 1936 and reported on in ASTM Special Technical Publication 290 entitled Twenty-Year Atmospheric Corrosion In-vestigation of Zinc-Coated and Uncoated Wire
7、 and Wire Products by Fred M.Reinhart.In June 1959,the Advisory Committee on Corrosion authorized Committee A-5 to conduct atmospheric corrosion tests of aluminum coated wire and wire products at seven ASTM sites in the United States(see map on next page)and an eighth site in Warrington,England.The
8、responsibility for the latter site was assumed by Rylands Whitecross Limited.Exposure of the wire and wire products specimens was initiated in 1961.For comparative purposes bare copper-bearing steel wire and zinc-coated steel wire and fabricated products were included in the testing program.A twelve
9、 year report on the 1961 exposure program entitled ASTM STP 585 Atmospheric Corrosion Investigation of Aluminum-Coated,Zinc-Coated,and Copper-Bearing Steel Wire and Wire Products by V.I.Kelley was pub-lished in 1975.This report presents the results of 20 years of exposure for the 1961 exposure progr
10、am,and was prepared by John F.Occasione,2 Thomas C.Britton,Jr.,3 and Roy C.Collins.3 1Committee A-S was originally titled Corrosion of Iron and Steel.2Retired in 1975 after 41 years with American Steel and Wire,Cleveland,Ohio and the U.S.Steel Corp.,Pittsburgh,Pa.,in various metallurgical positions.

16、uthorized.Brief Summary of Results The wire and wire product specimens were exposed at the seven U.S.sites in the spring and summer of 1961 and at Warrington,England on 1 March,1964.There were 340 unfabricated tension test specimens exposed at each of four sites.To date,276 have been removed and tested.Wire product speci-mens(field fence,barbed wire,chain-link fence,and 7-wire strand)were ex-posed at all eight sites.The hot dipped aluminum-coated specimens ranged from 0.08 to 0.19 kg/m 2(0.27 to
