1、Designation: D6251/D6251M 11Standard Specification forWood-Cleated Panelboard Shipping Boxes1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6251/D6251M; the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revisio

2、n. A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval. A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers the fabrication and closure ofempty and full wood-cleated, hereafter referred to as wood-cleated, panelb

3、oard boxes. These boxes are intended for use ascontainers for domestic and overseas shipment of generalmaterials and supplies, not exceeding 1000 lb 454 kgdepending on box type (see 10.1).1.2 Wood-cleated panelboard shipping box performance isdependent on its fabricated components and subsequent ass

4、em-bly; therefore, a variety of types, classes, styles, and treatmentsreflecting varied performance are specified. This specification,however, does not cover wood-cleated panelboard box perfor-mance under all atmospheric, handling, shipping, and storageconditions.1.3 If the use of other construction

5、 methods or techniques isacceptable and permitted (see 5.1.17), the resulting packagingsystems shall be of equal or better performance than wouldresult from the use of these specified materials and procedures.The appropriate distribution cycle, specified in Practice D4169,can be used to develop comp

6、arative procedures and criteria.1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, theSI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in eachsystem are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system mustbe used independently of th

7、e other. Combining values from thetwo systems may result in nonconformance with the standard.See IEEE/ASTM SI 10 for conversion of units.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of the standard to es

8、tablish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
