3、pril 2005.1. Scope*1.1 This standard is published with the following objectives:1.1.1 To establish standard color codes for zinc, zinc alloyand zinc master alloy ingot used by the Hot-Dip Galvanizingindustry, and1.1.2 To standardize the use and application of these colorcodes.1.2 This standard does
4、not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to become familiarwith all hazards including those identified in the appropriateMaterial Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for this product/materialas provided by the manufa

Significance and Use4.1 The purpose of these color codes is to allow for quickidentification of ingot bundles or jumbo ingots of alloys usedfor hot-dip ga
9、lvanizing. Other than jumbo ingots, this standardis not intended to imply that each ingot will be color-coded butonly that each ingot bundle be color coded.4.2 Each ingot bundle or jumbo ingot shall be identifiedwith the appropriate color code listed in Table 1.4.3 The color will be applied as a str
10、ipe, or stripes, on twoadjacent sides of the ingot bundle or jumbo ingot. The colorstripes will be applied to include the ingot bundle foot.4.4 When using multiple stripes, the colored stripes will beapplied from left to right as indicated in Table 1.4.5 In the absence of a written agreement to the
11、contrarybetween the supplier and end user, the North American colorcode will be the standard for all North American transactions;for all other transactions the International Color Code will beused.5.
