1、Designation: B 601 07Standard Classification forTemper Designations for Copper and Copper AlloysWrought and Cast1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B 601; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of
2、 last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This classification establishes te
