Form:

This specification covers a corrosion resistant steel in the form of bars and wire 0.75 inch (19 mm) and under in nominal diameter or distance between parallel sides.

Application:

These products have been used typically for small parts, such as bolts, screws, and clevis pins, requiring corrosion resistance up to 700 °F (371 °C) and which may be fabricated by heading or by machining from bars or wire and roll threading, but usage is not limited to such applications.
