1、Designation: B914 131Standard Practice forColor Codes on Zinc and Zinc Alloy Ingot for Use in Hot-DipGalvanizing of Steel1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B914; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the
2、 year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1NOTESummary of Changes and keywords were added editorially in September 2013.1. Scope*1.1 This standard is published wit
3、h 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 not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if
4、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 manufacturer, to establish appropriatesafety and health pra

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 galvanizing. Other than jumbo ingots, this standardis not
9、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 stripe, or stripes, on twoadjacent sides of the ingot bundl
10、e 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 contrarybetween the supplier and end user, the North Ame
11、rican colorcode will be the standard for all North American transactions;for all other transactions the International Color Code will beused.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee B02 on NonferrousMetals and Alloys and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee B02.04 on Zincan
