1、Designation:A679/A679M06(Reapproved 2012)Standard Specification forSteel Wire,High Tensile Strength,Cold Drawn1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A679/A679M;the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of
2、 last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This specification covers round,uncoated,high tensilestrength,cold-drawn steel spring wire,having properties andquality
3、suitable for the manufacture of mechanical springs andwire forms subject to high static stresses or infrequent dynamicload,or both.1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard.The values stated ineach system are not exact equivalents;therefore
