IS 18641 : 2024/ISO 544 : 2017 Welding Consumables - Technical Delivery Conditions for Filler Materials and Fluxes - Type of Product, Dimensions, Tolerances and Markings
NATIONAL FOREWORD
This Indian Standard which is identical to ISO 544 : 2017 'Welding consumables - Technical delivery conditions for filler materials and fluxes - Type of product, dimensions, tolerances and markings' issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Welding General and its Applications Sectional Committee and approval of the Metallurgical Engineering Division Council.
This document provides various types of delivery conditions and packaging (such as spools, rim, coil and reels) which are used for welding consumables along with their dimensions and tolerance.
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 with those used in Indian Standard. Attention is especially drawn to the following:
a) Wherever the words 'International Standard' appear referring to this standard, it 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.
