ASTM A240/A240M-23 pdf download – Standard Specification For Chromium And Chromium-Nickel Stainless Steel Plate, Sheet, And Strip For Pressure Vessels And For General Applications.
1.1 This specification covers chromium, chromium-nickel, and chromium-manganese-nickel stainless steel plates, sheets, and strips for use in pressure vessels and various general applications such as architectural, building, construction, and aesthetic purposes.
1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be treated as separate standards. The values in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, they should be used independently of one another. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.
1.3 This specification is expressed in both inch-pound and SI units. However, unless otherwise specified by the order, the material shall be provided in inch-pound units.
