1、Designation: B981/B981M 12Standard Specification forLow Leaded Brass Rod, Bar and Shapes1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B981/B981M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A n

2、umber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification establishes the requirements for lowleaded brass rod, bar, wire, and shapes of any specified crosssection produced fr

3、om Copper Alloys UNS No. C36300,C36500, C37000, C37100 and C37700 suitable for high-speedscrew machining applications.NOTE 1Refer to Specification B124/B124M when purchasing bar orrod for forging production.1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as

4、standard. The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any,

5、 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.
