SCOPE This specification covers established inch/pound manufacturing tolerances applicable to low-alloy steel bars ordered to inch/
6、pound dimensions. These tolerances apply to all conditions, unless otherwise noted. The term “exclusive” is used to apply only to the higher figure of the specified range. 1.1 No clear cut demarcation is available to differentiate between bar and wire products, so no definitions of these products ar

DIAMETER OR THICKNESS 2.1 Cold Finished 2.1.1 Cold Drawn Table 1 includes tolerances for bars that have been annealed, spheroidize annealed, normalized, normalized and tempered, or quenched and tempered before cold finishing. This table does not include tolerances for bars that are sp

SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS2251H Page 2 of 7 2.1.1.1 Width governs the tolerances for both width and thickness of flats. For example, when the maximum of carbon range is up to 0.28, inclusive, for a fla
9、t 2.000 inches wide and 1.000 inch thick, the width tolerance is 0.006 inch and the thickness tolerance is the same, namely, 0.006 inch.
