ICS 77.140.10; 77.140.20; 77.140.45

MTD 04

1 SCOPE

1.1 This standard covers cold drawn, turned, peeled or ground steel bars of grades and cross sections regarded as generally suitable for heat treatment, for machining into component or for use in 'as finished' condition in constructional applications or other similar purposes, such as for the manufacture of threaded and machined components for general engineering purposes.

1.2 This document does not apply to the following steel qualities:

a) Steel for cold heading/cold extrusion applications - Wrought carbon and low alloy steels as per IS 11169 (Part 1);

b) Steel for cold heading/cold extrusion applications - Stainless steels as per IS 11169 (Part 2);

c) Tool steels as per IS 3748; and d) Stainless steel semi-finished products, bars, wire rods and bright bars as per IS 6603.
