20、stability of a spring manufactured under this specification shall be such that no detrimental change in free height or number of coils shall occur when spring is heated to 200 C for 2 h in a free state, except hot set springs. 3.12 SURFACE CONDITION The wire shall be uniform in quality and in hardness, and shall not be wavy nor crooked. The surface as received shall be free from rust and excessive scale and be free from serious seams and deep scratches which will materially affect the quality of the finished product.
