The ASTM grade designations shall be used toidentify electrical steel grades only when the material soidentified complies with the requirements of the

41、.1 In the interest of promoting computerized databases,the electrical steel designation contained in this practice can becombined with the coatings designation listed in ClassificationA976 to form an identifying alphanumeric field. The usershould consult with the steel producer to verify that thecom

42、bination is correct since not all coatings are applicable toa given grade of steel. Since Classification A976 is not aspecification, it is not appropriate at this time to specifyinsulating coating behavior.ASTM International takes no position respecting the validity of any patent rights asserted in
