5.6 The method utilized in the production of either drawn- or final-galvanized wire types may he by an electro-deposition or hot-dip galvanizing process at the option of the producer.
5.6.1 The slab zinc used in galvanized zinc coatings shall be as specified in Specification B6.
5,7 The method utilized in the production of Zn5 Al-MM wire types may be either a continuous hot-dip alloy coating or two step coating where the first coating is zinc followed by a final bath having an aluminum content up to 7.2 % to prevent depletion of the aluminum content of the bath.
5.7.1 The bath metal used in continuous hot-dip Zn-5 Al-MM alloy coating shall meet the chemical composition limits specified in Specification B750.
6. Chemical Composition
6.1 Upon agreement with the purchaser. the wire manufacturer shall apply a steel of suitable chemical composition that will satisfy the properties of the material ordered.
6.2 A quantitative analysis of each cast or heat shall be made by the steel producer or his representative to determine the percentage of the elements specified. The analysis shall he made from a test sample preferably taken during the pouring of the cast or heat. The chemical composition thus determined shall be reported, if required, to the purchaser or his represen- tative.
6.3 An analysis may he made by the purchaser from the finished wire. The chemical composition thus determined as to the elements required shall conform to the product analysis requirements specified in Table 3 of Specification A5l0 or as agreed upon between the purchaser and the manufacturer.
7. Wire Diameter
7.1 The wire shall he measured using a micrometer with an minimum accuracy of 0.0001 in. (0.002 mm) for all diameters.
7.2 All diameter values measured in one location along the wire shall he within the tolerance limits given in Table I fbr uncoated and drawn-galvanized or drawn-Zn5 Al-MM rope wire or Table 2 for final-galvanized or final-coated Zn5 Al-MM rope wire.
8. Tensile Properties
8.1 Tensile Test Procedure:
8. 1 . I Standard Testing Method—The tensile test shall be carried out in accordance with Test Methods E8. The distance between the grips of the testing machine shall not be less than 8 in. (203 mm). The speed of the movable head of the testing.
