NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard (Part 12) which is identical to ISO 5832-12 : 2019 'Implants for surgery metallic materials Part 12 Wrought cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy' issued by the International Organization for Standardization was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on recommendation of the Orthopaedic Instruments, Implants and Accessories Sectional Committee and approval of the Medical Equipment and Hospital Planning Division Council.

The text of ISO standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain terminologies and conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:

 a) Wherever the words 'International Standard' appear referring to this standard, they should be read as 'Indian Standard'; and

 b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker, while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
