ASTM B233 Standard Specification for Aluminum 1350 Drawing Stock for Electrical Purposes

    Introduction to ASTM B233

    ASTM B233 deals with drawing stock made of aluminum 1350 to create electrical conductor wire. Chemical composition must be determined using appropriate spectrochemical, chemical, or other techniques. The material needs to be acceptable for drawing into wire and have a consistent quality and temper. Within the bounds of acceptable commercial practice, the stock must be free of pipes, laps, cracks, imperfections, turns, gaps, damaged ends, excessive oil, and other harmful faults. It must also be clean, sound, and smooth. MaTestLab is one of the best testing service providers, with the best network of testing laboratories in the USA to carry out ASTM B233 tests for our clients. 

    ASTM B233 Test Method

    Tensile TestThe testing machine’s jaws must have at least 10 inches (250 mm) of free length between them when the entire section of the specimen is being tested.
    Calculating ResistivityFull-section stock samples must be used for the resistivity tests.
    Calculating DensityTo determine the mass per unit of length, weight, cross-section, etc., aluminum 1350’s density at 20°C is 0.0975 lb/in2 (or 2705 kg/m3).
